Bolster brackets are typically mounted upright on a boat trailer's crossmembers. When used with a swivel bracket (sold separately), they allow a mounted bunk board, which is run from the front of the trailer to the back, to pivot while you are loading a boat. On kayak trailers, these brackets are mounted to the trailer's frame and support bunk boards that run across the trailer.
Galvanized Steel
Galvanized steel parts are hot-dipped in zinc after being stamped. This creates a coating that is typically 3 mil to 5 mil thick. This thick, all-around coating allows galvanized steel products to provide years of use without rusting or corroding.

Video Transcript for Review of CE Smith Boat Trailer Parts - Galvanized Steel Bolster Bracket - CE10102G
Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com, and today we're gonna take a look at the CE Smith galvanized steel bolster bracket. Now bolster brackets are typically mounted upright on a boat trailer's cross member with a U-bolt, and when used with the swivel bracket, they allow a mounted bunk board, which is run from the front of the trailer to the back, to pivot while you are loading a boat. On kayak trailers, these brackets are mounted to the trailer's frame and support bunk boards that run across the trailer. This rust-resistant bolster bracket helps support one bunk board on your boat trailer, when used with a swivel bracket, and two brackets are required per bunk board. For this, you're gonna get one bolster bracket. Now the dimpled surface is going to help prevent the bracket from sliding along the trailer's frame and the mounting slots permit as much as 4 3/4 inches of height adjustment during your installation.
And this is made in the USA of galvanized, of 11-gauge galvanized steel that will resist rust and corrosion. Galvanized steel parts are hot-dipped in zinc after being stamped, so this is gonna create a coating that is typically 3 millimeters to 5 millimeters thick, and this thick all-around coating allows galvanized steel products to provide years of use without rusting or corroding, so this is suitable for salt water exposure. Again, you're gonna get one bracket and let me give you some overall dimensions. The overall length of this bracket, if I can hold it still, is sitting right at 12 inches tall and then the width, we are sitting right at 2 1/2 inches wide. And as I mentioned, these mounting slots are sitting right at 4 3/4 of an inch, 4 3/4 inches long, and that's the amount of adjustments you're gonna get on both of those slots.
And they are sitting at right at 1/2 an inch, move my fingers there, right at 1/2 an inch wide. And then the spacing between these slots are sitting right at 1/2 an inch. And the swivel bracket mounting hole diameter is sitting at 1/2 an inch. Now, please check out our website here at etrailer.com if you need U-bolts, swivel brackets, or bunk boards. We have a variety of those on our website, so take advantage of our website and find exactly what you need.
Well, that's gonna conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy, thank you for joining me..

It is working fine
by: Vern M.10/16/2012
One side of the support boards on my bunk trailer collapsed from old age. I thought the chances of finding the parts needed would be slim to none as the trailer is about 20 yrs old. You not only had the exact parts but at a price far below what I had expected allowing me to be able to afford replacing both sides of the bunks. I placed my order on line on a Thursday night and my parts were at the front door on Saturday. Communication from you to me as to the status of my order was very prompt. Many companies could learn from your example!

I needed these to add a crossbar on a kayak trailer, and they were just the ticket. Heavily galvanized, sturdy metal.

Quality material, and quick arrival from order date.
Customer service quite helpful.
If you want quality, and savings this is the place.
Only down is could not obtain answer on load capacity on bolster brackets, but seems to be same industry wide.
Would be great to know this for both 7 & 11 gauge.

See what our Experts say about this CE Smith Boat Trailer Parts
- Recommended Brackets For Horizontal Bunk Board InstallationTo install bunk boards like the CE Smith Carpeted Bunk Boards for Boat Trailers - 6' Long - 1 Pair # CE27840 flat, I recommend using the CE Smith Bolster and Swivel Bracket Assemblies # CE10000G-4 along with the CE Smith U-Bolts - Galvanized # CE15283GA-4. You will simply tighten down the swivel bracket assemblies to make them lay flat.
view full answer... - Replacement Pontoon Trailer Bunk Brackets to Provide Increased Clearance Between Boat and GroundSince your clearance issue is not so much with your trailer as with your pontoon boat's skegs, the better solution is to install taller bunk brackets to lift the height of the boat on the trailer, rather than lifting the trailer higher off the ground. Keep in mind that a tire would have to be 3-inches taller overall to give you 1-1/2-inches more height. A tire that much larger would probably create a new problem with fender or wheel well clearance. The linked page displays all bunk brackets...
view full answer... - Is There a Way to get a 14 Inch Bolster Bracket?We do have an option to get you to the 14 inches, but it will be parts that need to be purchased separately. So with that being said, the CE Smith Bolster Bracket # CE10102G will measure 12 inches tall and if paired with the CE Smith Swivel Bracket # CE10200G, it will get you to the 14 inches.
