Today were going to review part number YR5213-4P. This is the Yates V Keel Roller for boat trailers. Youll want to replace the worn out roller on your boat trailer with this large diameter heavy duty rubber one. This V shaped Keel Roller functions as a direct replacement for rollers that fit standard 5-inch wide brackets with a 1/2-inch diameter shaft. This part will replace one keel roller on your boat trailer. It will help ease the loading and loading of the boat and it does support the bottom of the boat as it sits on the trailer.
The V shape offers extra support for deep holes. This will also help to absorb road shock while the boat is being towed. This part is constructed of a heavy duty rubber. It is made in the USA. I just want to give you a measurement on this.
This is a 5-inch long by 3-inch diameter roller. It does fit on a 5-inch wide bracket that uses a 1/2-inch diameter shaft. That should do it for a review on part number YR5213-4P.

Replace the worn-out roller on your boat trailer with this large-diameter, heavy-duty rubber one. This V-shaped keel roller functions as a direct replacement for rollers that fit standard 5" wide brackets with a 1/2" diameter shaft.Exactly as described and great service!
At the time of this writing there is no picture of this roller on this site. I had to basically use the same part in a 5/8 shaft version as a guide for what it looked like and hope I was right, and I was. This is a black, heavy duty rubber roller with a mild taper toward the center. It helps center the boat as it rolls onto the trailer and is extremely tough. I expect this to last a very long time, even with the aluminum V bottom boat that I have that is very tough on rollers.
I am refurbishing an old trailer and need this item. It is exactly the piece I needed to replace. The item was shipped and arrived very fast and I was kept informed of the whole process in a timely matter. Very impressed
The rollers work great. This is a direct replacement on a 29 year old trailer. Boat is a catamaran and the back 2 rollers are the ones I am replacing. When going off and on the trailer the back 2 rollers take the weight of the entire boat and after 29 years they still functioned but the inside diameter was ovaled out. I guess nothing lasts forever.
Installation was easy, rollers work very well.
Very well made! Going to last longer than me.
Fast delivery, perfect fit.
Quick delivery and was a good fit.

Product is still working fine
I had a worn keel roller on our 1987 EZ Loader boat trailer. I found this exact replacement at etrailer. Everywhere else I looked had 5/8" shaft size and this one is 1/2" shaft size. Perfect fit. Etrailer communicated well through the whole transaction.

Roller works great after one year. Just wish I could use the boat more. The roller will last years
Roller has held up well. Used on a small 16 foot lund where I have to winch the boat on so the roller has a lot of weight on it with the trolling motor and batteries in the bow. No issues though.
Works just fine. Just don't tighten the bolt as tight as humanly possible to allow the roller to still turn.
The 5" V keel roller is just what I needed.The price was fair, and the shipping was prompt !!

Has given me the service I expected!!
First time doing business with this vendor. Website was easy to navigate. Product ordered was exactly as advertised and was delivered sooner than expected.
These are nice heavy duty rollers and for the short money that etrailer sells them for I would say great value! I am going to order some more of them!

That stuff I got from you has worked out well and I am 110 satisfied
Removed old roller and installed new ones, fit like a glove. Seems to be better quality then original equipment.

This was a perfect replacement, works great.
I needed a number of things and found EXACTLY what I needed as my winter garage project is modifying an old trailer to safely accommodate a vintage runabout. Amazing array of products, always top notch quality, great communication, reasonable prices and quick delivery, etrailer.com is the one-stop of trailer parts and many other essential products. I'm a fan.
This arrived quickly and has already been installed - due to good info on the dimensions and hardware needed. I highly recommend this vendor for all trailer parts and upgrades.
The part I was looking for was a common keel roller. So many other sites didn't have what I was looking for, or they were very vague in their description. ETrailer was right on point with what I was looking for and had it shipped to me in a couple of days!
I’ve needed this part for my 2016 EZ load trailer and haven’t located another source for one with the 1/2”dia. shaft. So I ordered a spare. It’s somewhat discouraging they’re not readily available on the market.
The YR5213=4P Yates V keel roller with 1/2" shaft fit correctly and I installed it without difficulty or assistance on my old EZ Loader boat trailer. I raised my 12' aluminum skiff up off the old roller using a 4X6 X16" block as a fulcrum and a 6' 2X4 as a lever then blocked it up with another piece of 4X6 on the center trailer member under the keel. I haven't tried loading the boat off and on the trailer but I can see no reason why it shouldn't be a big improvement over the worn out cylindrical roller that I replaced.
Each time I have ordered from E Trailer, the service had been outstanding ! Also, their custome service and follow up are top notch.
I've been looking for a couple of years for a keel roller for a very old boat trailer. Original is rotted away. Finally decided to check with etrailer as I got a good set of LED lights and wiring last week from them. Lo & behold they had the exact replacement in stock & I got it in three days.

Roller is good but I should have have bought wider
Great product. But i am more impressed by the etrailer.com company. From the great customer service to the fast shipping and low prices. Thanks again. I am now able to continue my 1969 starcraft now that i have it on the trailer.
