Great roller



by:

High quality, just clean and rinse with a little oil after each boat dock, they will last forever, just corn or vegetable oil. Natural oils only. Navy Trick!



by:

The roller works great but was not happy with how it was shipped. Left company by UPS and arrived into our city on Friday morning. That afternoon UPS delivered to our local post office instead of delivering directly to my house. Had to wait till Saturday afternoon before roller was received when it could have stayed on the UPS and been here Friday afternoon instead.



by:

Product was exactly what I needed and I received it within a few days. I will order from etrailer.com again any time I need a part for my trailer or truck.



by:

I shopped around and these were not made the cheapest, but were about $5.00 less than what stores sold them for in my city. They are installed on my boat trailer, but have not seen any use yet.



by:

Good product. I got it together with the roller shat and the brackets.

No problem works great.



by:

They work perfectly, My old ones I had to push hard to get the boat off the trailer, Now it rolls right off



by:

Works good as the first roller the bow/keel contacts to center the boat on the trailer for recovery.



by:

these rubber rollers are much as you would expect by the photo, but
don't order your axle material before you get the rollers, because
the hole may not be 5/8's as advertised, mine were nearly 3/4's.
I used 14 of these, and built a wooden boat ramp......turned out
great! I would use these again.



by:

received good service from these guys for years



by:

The rollers were an exact replacement of my old ones and easy to install. Getting the old ones off took some effort for sure. I used all new hardware which made the replacement easier. Would definitely purchase these again.



by:

Fast shipping, works as it should. Off the delivery truck & in place in 10min



by:

As discribed. Fast shipping!



by:

Put first pal nut on with hammer. Use C-clamp to start second. Finish with two hammers



by:

Worked and fit good



by:

Perfect as described, fast shipping, best price found online. The 3 on my trailer were broke apart, I bought all three here, and shipping was combined, very fair. Got pal push clips off with hi spd grinder.

A year later, holding up like new!

I buy all my trailer parts at etrailer.com

they are still working as new . Good replacement product !



by:

I have a 12 foot V hull aluminum fishing boat.
I bought the boat and trailer at a great discount. Now I’m trying to fix up the trailer to make it fully functional. These bunk rollers work perfectly as stated. The bow stop was very simple to install and it does exactly what it supposed to do.
The products are very well-built. They fit my trailer exactly. Shipping was prompt, communication was excellent.
I have not launch my boat yet as I have other projects to do but I am convinced it will launch and retrieve very easily due to the new rollers and now stop!



by:

All parts were exactly what I needed



by:

Etrailer.com was spot on with the part I ordered. It was the perfect retro fit for my trailer. I will keep them as my go-to supplier. Even though this part is small, we all know how important this roller keel is. Tough, solid and a perfectly defined measurements.



by:

Good solid roller at a reasonable price. Excellent service from etrailer when the order got confused.

Good quality, durable. Very satisfied.



by:

Ordered these keel rollers for my boat trailer and they arrived two days later. Really fast service. Rollers are high-quality and should last a long time. Appreciate the great service.



by:

Nice heavy product. Helps keep the our 14 Aluma craft in the center of the trailer better than the wobble roller.



by:

Not a thing wrong with the product, just hard to rate something as simple as a roller higher. I will say that etrailer performed as advertised, quickly and and with very competitive shipping rates.



by:

Works well but is wearing. I am happy with it . I launch the boat about once a week all year long. When I need another one (maybe a year from now) I will get the clear, hard rubber roller and see if it lasts longer. It always pays to spend a little more on any part for a boat you use a lot.

  • Do The 5" Yates Keel Rollers Have Bushings Or Sleeves?
    The Yates V Keel Roller # YR5213-5 does not have any bushings or sleeves. To get the bushings you would need the wider 5-3/8" Keel Roller # YR5244-105EC. We do have the PVC Keel Roller # CE29516 that is more durable than a rubber roller and will not mark up your keel. I recommend getting a new Roller Shaft with Pal Nuts # CE10722A if yours is showing signs of corrosion or wear.

  • Replacement Rollers For 1965 Vintage Boat Trailer
    We do have some of the replacement rollers that will work for your vintage 1965 boat trailer, but we do not have some of the rollers you asked about. Thank you for the dimensions. For the very front keel roller I recommend part # YR5213-5. This measures 5 inches long and works with a 5/8 inch diameter shaft. The three center rollers I recommend are part # YR5203-5. These are also 5 inches long and fit a 5/8 inch shaft. We do offer bunk rollers and you can take a look at part # DL21754....

  • 5 inch Keel Roller Bracket Recommendation for a Boat Trailer
    The CE Smith Panel Bracket for 5" Boat Trailer Rollers # CE10301G is designed to be mounted on the side of a trailer frame like the bent bracket in the picture you attached. If you look at the bracket you will see that the portion that holds the roller extends up above the top of the portion of the bracket that would attach to the trailer frame. Also, I checked your order notes and you previously ordered the Yates V Keel Roller # YR5213-5 which would work well with the # C10301G. If I...

  • 5 inch Wide V-Shaped Keel Roller for Boat Trailer
    We have 5 inch V keel rollers that are black like the part # YR5213-5 but we do not have the amber color like you are looking for.

  • Replacement for Keel Roller Marked 5213
    Based on that part number it sounds like your bow roller is the Yates Keel Roller. We have two different options based on the diameter of your shaft. If you have a 5/8" shaft you need the # YR5213-5 and for a 1/2" shaft the # YR5213-4P. Both have a 5" length and a 3" diameter.

  • Availability of 7-1/2-inch-long V-Shaped Replacement Keel Roller for Boat Trailer
    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...

  • Load Capacity of the Yates 8-Inch Keel Roller # YR8000
    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.

  • Replacement Bow Roller for 5/8 inch Shaft
    I have a few different options for you. The Rubber Endcap # YR134-5 that you mentioned can be used with keel rollers, spool rollers, or bow rollers. If you are wanting to stick with a bow roller, We do have a Bow Roller Assembly # YR450B-400B available that comes with a 1/2 inch shaft. This will eliminate the need to find a bow roller with a bigger shaft hole. I did go out to the warehouse to see with it was possibly that a 5/8 inch shank could fit in a bow roller that has a 1/2 inch hole...

  • Determining The Correct Replacement Keel Roller For 2018 Tige RZX3
    I would be happy to help you find the correct replacement keel roller for your 2018 Tige RZX3, but you will need to measure the length of your current keel roller, and the diameter of the shaft it uses. For example the Yates V Keel Roller for Boat Trailers - Super-Heavy-Duty Rubber # YR5213-5 you were looking at is 5" long and uses a 5/8" shaft. If this matches your current keel roller this would be a great replacement option. If not let me know the above information and I would be happy...

  • Replacement for a 4-1/2" Long Keel Roller on a Boat Trailer
    The 4-1/2" keel roller is a size commonly found in Australia. You might consider switching to the 5" Keel Roller Assembly # CE10401G so that you will be able to find parts more easily find a replacement Roller # YR5213-5 in the future.

  • How to Pick Out the Correct Diameter Keel Roller for a Boat Trailer
    If you are looking to reuse the current roller shafts that you have you will want to first measure the diameter of them so that you get a matching keel roller for that shaft. You also will want to measure the length of the roller so that you get the correct size in that regard as well. The part # YR5213-5 that you referenced is 5 inches long and designed to fit a 5/8 inch shaft. For a 5/8 inch pal nut that will hold the shaft to the bracket you would want the part # CE10801. If you need...

  • Keel Rollers for a 1991 Caulkins Boat Trailer that Will Not Corrode from the Inside
    A keel roller such as # YR5213-5 would work well for you since it does not have a metal sleeve inside. For the best corrosion resistance you would use stainless steel shafts to hold the rollers to their brackets. That can get expensive. We currently offer a zinc-plated steel shaft for this roller, # CE10722A, which is going to be in between regular steel and stainless as far as corrosion resistance. We also have roller # YR5244-105EC which uses nylon bushings instead of a steel sleeve....
