Expert Reply:

CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly # CE10405G doesn't have a stated weight capacity because a keel roller is not designed to carry the bulk of a boat's weight. That is the job of the bunks.

Also, it is not a good idea to mount any of these boat support components to the trailer axles. Doing so would allow the forces from bumps to be transmitted directly to the boat's hull. Items that support the boat itself should be mounted to the trailer frame, which is then isolated from the road by the trailer's suspension.

I attached a demonstration video of this roller for you to check out.
