Video Transcript for In-Depth Review of the Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers

Today we're going to review part #yr4174-4. This is the Yates bow roller for boat trailers. This bow roller is constructed of a heavy duty rubber material. It is made in the USA. This will replace the worn out bow roller on your boat trailer. This will help in the loading and unloading of the boat and it will support the front of the boat as it sits on the trailer.

This will also help absorb the road shock while the boat is being towed. Now we are going to do a few measurements on this. The length is 3 and 7/8 inches. The diameter is 3 and a half inches. This bow roller is designed to fit on a 4 inch wide bracket that has a half inch diameter shaft.

And that should do it for part #yr4174-4.

  • Replacement Bow Roller for 5/8 inch Shaft
    I have a few different options for you. The Rubber Endcap # YR134-5 that you mentioned can be used with keel rollers, spool rollers, or bow rollers. If you are wanting to stick with a bow roller, We do have a Bow Roller Assembly # YR450B-400B available that comes with a 1/2 inch shaft. This will eliminate the need to find a bow roller with a bigger shaft hole. I did go out to the warehouse to see with it was possibly that a 5/8 inch shank could fit in a bow roller that has a 1/2 inch hole...

  • Recommendation for Replacement Bow Stop Roller Measuring 4 Inches with 1/2 Inch Hole
    Hey Craig, thanks for your recent order with etrailer.com. We really appreciate your business. I have a couple different options that would work for you. Yates offers the thermoplastic rubber bow roller in yellow, # YR450Y, and blue, # YR450B. The thermoplastic rubber material is stronger and softer than the standard polyurethane rollers and it won't leave marks on your boat. These rollers measure 3-3/4 inches long and are made to be used in 4 inch wide brackets with 1/2 inch diameter...

  • Replacement Option for 3-1/2" Rubber Bow Roller
    The closest thing we have to a 3-1/2" long bow roller is the # YR450BLK. This is 3-3/4" long x 3-1/4" diameter and made of thermal-plasticized rubber. If you don't want the thermal-plasticized rubber we have the # YR4174-4 which measures 3-7/8" long x 3-1/2" diameter. Both of these are made for a 4" wide bracket with a 1/2" diameter shaft.

  • Replacement Bow Roller Brackets for Boat Trailer
    While we don't have any specific replacements for your boat trailer we do have bow roller brackets that you may be able to use. For example, the CE Smith Bow Roller Bracket # CE31005PG with the Yates Bow Roller for Boat Trailers - Heavy-Duty Rubber # YR4174-4 and Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts for Boat Trailer Rollers # CE10700A. I have added links to video reviews of these parts as well as links to our entire selection of brackets for you to look through.

  • Bow Roller Recommendation to Replace a Bow Stop on a 1986 Eagle Trailer
    The Yates 4 Inch Bow Roller, # YR4174-4, is designed to be used with a 4 inch wide mounting bracket. The roller itself actually measures 3-7/8 inches long so it can fit in a 4 inch space and roll. This roller should work great on your 1986 Eagle trailer. A small gap between the roller and the bracket is ideal to allow the roller to rotate freely. A 3 inch roller would not stay centered with the boat hull when loading as well as the 4 inch roller would.
