I spoke with my contact at Yates on the Yates 8-Inch Keel Roller, part # YR8000, and he said the load capacity on the roller is 400 lbs. The keel rollers on a boat trailer are for positioning the boat on the trailer and do not have to carry much, if any weight of the boat.
I am including a link to a video review on the Yates keel roller.
