This roller assembly supports your boat's keel for easy loading and safe transport on your trailer. It features an 8-inch, black rubber keel roller and a galvanized steel panel bracket with slotted mounting holes for adjustability.
Features:
Specs:
Typically installed upright on the rear and middle crossmembers of a boat trailer, keel roller panel bracket assemblies help to keep the boat moving while it is being loaded and to stabilize the keel.
Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steel parts are hot-dipped in zinc after being stamped. This creates a coating that is typically 3 mil to 5 mil thick. This thick, all-around coating allows galvanized steel products to provide years of use without rusting or corroding.

Ratings & Reviews
Product was received in outstanding condition, products description was accurate. Overall experience with etrailer was exceptional. I would recommend etrailer to my friends and family.
Great communication, as advertised and very quick shipping. Thanks
Installed it today - pleased that it fit as hoped.
The lights are great. They fit my trailer very well and I like that they are submersiable. All the trailer parts repaired my small trailer back to new and they function very well.
New to boating; having rebuilt trailer which came with my boat, performs as expected without considerations.
I was very pleased the whole transaction process, Fast shipping and great correspondence. I will buy from you again and suggest to anyone who needs trailer parts
Looks like it will work, but differently than I hoped for. One thing I wished I knew was the dimension from the bottom of the plate to the top of the roller, while the plate was laid flat with roller up. I wanted to mount it this way, but it was 1/2 inch too high for me to mount it that way. I had to mount it vertically on the trailer to make it work. Adding this dimension to the product might help someone else out in the future.
Etrailer came thru for me in a timely and professional manner whereas west marines feminist employee screwed me over because I'm an old white guy. Bye bye west marine and Hello Etrailer!
I have modified my 12x6.5 trailer to haul my catamaran. These rollers allow me to safely and easily load my Cat and secure it in place. Easy rolling and no wear on the hulls. Highly recommend these roolers for boat trailers.
Well built, quality. I would highly recommend etrailer.
Very sturdy and well built. I replaced the skinny keel skid on my Shorelandr trailer with this 8 inch roller. I also added roll on guides to help center the boat.
Mark, at etrailer, was very helpful when I needed to change my order. The product shipped exactly when he said it would. When the roller arrived it looked just as it was pictured on-line . . . heavy duty.
The website is very helpful and well thought out. I liked the video descriptions of your products - especially the measurements which was very helpful in ordering the correct size. The V Keel Roller Assembly that I purchased is extremely sturdy and worth the price. My plans for using it are a bit unconventional - I am attaching it to the rear of my car Kayak rack to facilitate rolling my Kayak onto the carrier by myself. Buying the parts I needed from the rack company would have been four times what I paid for the Roller Assembly from etrailer.com.
The brackets fit well and work as expected. This is a good product.
I installed this roller atop a 1x6 plank across the forward part of my trailer to provide more support to the bow of my 20' sailboat. The arrangement turned out better than expected as the boat now rolls easily on and off the trailer with no more heavy lifting for me.
Exactly what I needed for my transom on my boat.
I added 3 sets of these to my trailer to keep my keep keel from making any contact with my transverse beams on my trailer. After a year they're still doing the job and look brand new. I fresh water rinse them thoroughly at the end of the day and they've required no other maintenance. Don't forget to buy a high quality set of non ferrous hardware with nylocks to secure them. Happy customer right here.
I used as a guide on my boat lift to help keep the boat away from the dock when the wind is blowing and the tide is coming in or out. Works well and when the boat is up and out of the water it steadies from blowing back and forth and side to side.
Yes I received my order from e trailer. It was well packaged and was a prompt delivery. I mounted my new boat trailer roller on my trailer and what a difference. Now I can crank my boat up on the trailer without even touching the boat. Once the boat makes contact with the roller mounted in center rear most cross bar the boat begins rising up until its high enough to slide onto the bunks and up to the winch. It centers it's self every time and sure makes life easier. Now I can go fishing and handle loading and unloading the boat without help. I will be doing a lot more fishing from now on. Thanks for offering such excellent products on line and shipping to my front door.
Purchased roller assemblies and guide on posts for boat trailer. Arrived quickly and were exactly as described. Great seller!

Holding up very well. Used in salt water at South Padre Island. Great product!
I put these on my trailer and they centered the boat nicely. Slots are 6 in. apart and can take up to 1/2 in screws. The shipping was very fast and always has been with etrailer.com.

they still work great
I’ve now had to order 2 replacements as the metal shears off after about a year.
This item did exactly what I hoped it would. It was perfect for the job.
The rollers are great. My problem was the boat was on the trailer when I installed the rollers.
Great front roller
