My contact at Yates Rubber advises that a nominal 8-inch keel roller does not measure exactly 8 inches; typically they are slightly smaller than the specified size, much the way a piece of 2 x 4 lumber is not exactly 2-inches by 4-inches. I took measurements of several replacement rollers and confirmed that the 8-inch size generally measures 7-5/16 (just the roller itself) and 7-3/4 inches including the nylon bushings on each end.
For example, the Dutton-Lainson # DL21712 is a nominal 8-inch roller that fit 5/8-inch diameter shafts. We also offer a heavy-duty model, part # YR8000, and super-heavy-duty model, part # YR8244-105EC, also for 5/8 shafts.
If you prefer to replace your entire roller/bracket assembly we do offer these parts as well, such as the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly, part # CE10403G, and the thermal-plasticized-rubber version, part # CE10453G.
