Replace the keel roller on your boat trailer with this PVC roller. Durable polyvinyl chloride roller supports the keel of your boat as it sits on your trailer. Non-marring material won't leave scuffs or marks on your boat.
Features:
Specs:
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a sturdy material that is great for use on marine trailers. A PVC roller is more durable than a rubber roller, but it's also soft enough to absorb road shock when your boat's in tow. And PVC is corrosion resistant, even in saltwater.
PVC is also non-marring, so it won't damage or discolor your boat upon contact. Rubber rollers can leave marks on your boat's hull as you load and unload. With PVC, on the other hand, you won't need to worry about any scuffs or smears on your boat.

Replace the keel roller on your boat trailer with this PVC roller. Durable polyvinyl chloride roller supports the keel of your boat as it sits on your trailer. Non-marring material won't leave scuffs or marks on your boat.I have an '85 trailer which has always been fitted with Atwood rubber rollers. Until the last few years they were fine and then something changed with the durability of the rubber. I was changing rollers every season. Last year I went with CE Smith and I have an entire season of traveling and many launches on them. So far I see only minimal abrasion on the center rollers beneath the keel. They look good and I look forward to them lasting a while. I will most likely buy them again. I give them 4 stars for durability with the possibility of that going to five if they last a couple more seasons.
I ordered a roller for my boat trailer, and the wrong roller was sent. I called etrailer about it and they immediately sent out the correct part. Excellent service and I highly recommend them.

Perfect.
Working great
Strong roller, works well. Boat rolls right off the trailer when unloading!
Good quality.
I have yet to install it but the quality looks good and it should easily guide my boat toward the winch post
Except missing a bushing from one rolle r.

Thank you for the review! Our customer service team should be reaching out to you.
The package arrived promptly and with no damage.
Tougher and more durable than the cheaper black rubber type. Should hold up better before replacing again. Also should keep rolling better with my Lund keel not chewing it up so bad.
Perfect fit. Looks like they will do the job; but the last ones I got; Gates Black rubber, deteriorated in a short amount of time. We'll see what these look like in a year or two.
Works as it should and looks way better than the old black one.
