  • What is the Widest Keel Roller for a Boat Trailer
    Thanks for reaching out, Michael! The widest roller we have is the 18" Long Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers # YR18244-165EC which installs on a trailer using the CE Smith Universal-Fit Split Panel Brackets # CE10500G, the 19" Roller Shaft w/Cap Nuts # 107-30A, and either bolting into the trailer frame or around it with U-Bolts. Since I'm not sure what the size of your frame is I've gone ahead and added a link to our U-Bolt kit selection for you to filter through, but I'd be more than...

  • Is the Steel Shaft Included With the Yates 18 Inch Keel Roller For Boat Trailers
    The Yates Keel Roller For Boat Trailers, # YR18244-165EC, does not come with the steel shaft, but we do carry a steel shaft that will fit this keel roller. You will want to pick up the 19 inch long x 5/8 inch diameter roller shaft, # 107-30A.

  • 12 Inch Keel Roller And Bracket
    The U-shaped bracket is not something we carry, but we do have a much stronger assembly for the keel roller. I recommend using the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly for Boat Trailers - Galvanized Steel/Black Rubber - 12" # CE10405G for a complete mount and roller. We also have the CE Smith Universal-Fit Split Panel Brackets for Boat Trailers - Galvanized Steel - 1 Pair # CE10500G which can be used with the Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts for Boat Trailer Rollers - Zinc-Plated Steel -...

  • Combination Keel/Caster Roller Assembly for Tandem Axle Shorelander Boat Trailer
    A keel roller is not designed to carry the bulk of a boat's weight. That is the job of the bunks, whether they are wobble roller bunks like yours, standard roller bunks or carpeted 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. All items that support the boat itself should be mounted to the trailer frame, which is then isolated from the road by...

  • Roller Shaft Recommendation with Pal Nuts for an 18 inch Long Keel Roller # YR18244-165EC
    For a roller shaft with a 5/8 inch diameter that comes with pal nuts that would work with an 18 inch long keel roller like the part # YR18244-165EC you would want the part # 107-30A. This is a 19 inch long shaft that is 5/8 inch in diameter and comes with pal nuts. This is the longest one we offer in 5/8 inch diameter.

  • Recommended Keel Roller For Best Weight Capacity on Boat Trailer
    The Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers - Super-Heavy-Duty Rubber - 18" Long - 5/8" Shaft # YR18244-165EC is not weight rated. The weight of the boat will actually be on the bracket and the 5/8 inch shaft that runs through the heavy-duty roller. Your application with the front weight the roller is more likely to bend the longer you make the roller. For instance the 18 inch roller along with the brackets # CE10500G and Roller Shaft w/Cap Nuts 19" x 5/8" # 107-30A will be more likely...

  • Roller Shafts for 12 and 18 Inch Bow Rollers
    We do indeed have the roller shafts you are needing. For the 18 inch roller, use part # 107-30A, which includes the pal nuts for the end of the roller shaft. For the 12 inch roller, you can use # CE10727A, which also includes the pal nuts.

  • Keel Roller for Sun Deck Boat Trailer
    It all depends on the size of the bracket that you currently have. The Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers item # YR18244-165EC you were looking at would work on an 18" bracket. This is made of a super-heavy-duty rubber that fits on a 5/8" shaft. One thing to remember is the wider the roller the more likely it is to sag. Depending on the number of rollers and weight of your Sun Deck boat you may need to use a 12" one or smaller. I have linked our selection of Keel Rollers to help you find...

  • Can the White Ends of the Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers # YR18244-165EC be Removed
    I went out into our warehouse and pulled a Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers # YR18244-165EC and after some careful prying with a slot screwdriver I was able to remove the white ends of the roller. Once removed the diameter of the hole of the roller is 1-3/8 inches, which is just an 1/8 of an inch shy of being 1-1/2 inches.
