Shipping was great, and product was of good quality. I actually posted it on a boat forum and several folks ask for your link to purchase some too.



by:

Great product for the money. Easy to install and looks great and will protect my nose of boat when loading.



by:

In er wheel was too narrow for my existing needs. I used the outer parts to replace OEM that were hard and deformed.



by:

I was extremely happy with it after installation. I purchased it to replace an old one that was marking up my bow with black marks. This one is muck better than that old one, but I still get more faint black marks on the bow . Just wish I went with the more translucent yellowish one that most others have gone with.

I contacted yates and they recommend going with the yellow roller part # YR450Y-400Y to avoid black marks. The blue roller part # YR450B-400B will also work.



by:

Considering the the original part on my trailer lasted 25 years before needing to be replaced, the wear so far on the replacement part is way more than it should be. The first one was made in the USA......no idea where the replace meant came from ...but I bet I could guess



by:

This product was a great addition to our boat trailer when the OEM part failed. The larger side wings make it much easier to line the boat up on the trailer and help protect the finish on the front of the boat.



by:

Although we bought this part as a spare and have not used it, it is exactly what we wanted. George from etrailer.com was excellent and kept us informed on the backorder and shipping of the bow roller. I would buy from him again because of the customer service alone. Thank you so much. Highly recommend!



by:

Fit great.



by:

I am new (again) to boating, and being on the frugal side, always want to compare products that I purchase. Thought I could deal local (you know, support your local economy and all), but when actually given the chance, they could not (or would not) even come close! etrailer sells the same top-quality products at prices that couldn't be touched by local suppliers.
Huge "thank-you" to etrailer for allowing DIY'ers such as myself the opportunity to be a part of this new hobby!



by:

Great service and fast delivery. I use etrailer for all my trailer needs.



by:

Great product I’ve had it about a year still in great shape. I use my boat about twice a month in salt water and trailer every time



by:

Good replacement for my OEM roller assembly that lasted 16 years. Bells and roller seem very sturdy.



by:

This product was of better quality than I expected, I was very pleased with this and every other purchase I’ve made from etrailer.com.



by:

Excellent communication and delivery. The product exceeded my expectations! Always good to work with etrailer where you feel they care about you.



by:

Ordering was easy. Got exactly what I was needing. Order arrived just a few days after purchase. Will definitely use etrailer.com again.



by:

Just what we needed.

  • Aluminum Vertical Bunk Brackets and Stainless Steel U-bolts for Boat Trailer
    The vertical bunk brackets do not have a weight capacity rating. You should be fine with the aluminum, but if you are concerned about the strength then you can stick to the galvanized steel the manufacturer used. - Replacement CE Smith Vertical Bunk Bracket # CE10161A40 (8") - Replacement CE Smith Vertical Bunk Bracket # CE10162A40 (10") - CE Smith U-Bolt - Stainless Steel # CE15503A We do have bunk carpets and bow support options as well, without knowing what size bunk boards and what...

  • Bow Roller Recommendation to Fit 4 inch Roller that is Too Long
    Looks like you have the part # YR450BLK-400BLK installed and are needing the next size down which happens to be the part # YR300BLK-325BLK. This fits the same 1/2 inch diameter shaft but is 1 inch shorter than what you have. Your bell ends being deformed would not be a good sign.

  • Recommended Bow Stop For Boat Trailer With 28 Sail Boat
    Thanks for the picture! I have an option that may work for you, but unfortunately we do not have a bow stop that mounts in the same fashion as the one pictured. What I recommend is using the Bow Roller Assembly w/ Bells for 4" Wide Bracket - TPR - 1/2" Shaft - Black # YR450BLK-400BLK which will need brackets added to the crossmember your current stop is mounted to, but will be a better option as it will not have a bolt through the center which can scratch your boat.

  • Looking for a Replacement Handle for a Knott Autoflex Hand Winch
    If you were looking for a replacement handle, the hole opening on the Replacement Quick Attach Winch Handle for Dutton Lainson Winch - 9-1/2" # DL70330 will measure 15/32" by 5/8" and looks like it will be a good replacement for your Knott Autoflex winch. I do suggest measuring to confirm this though. However, if you are referring to the shaft/handle to change from one speed to the other, you will need to contact Knott directly. This is not a winch we carry so I cannot say if any of our...

  • Bow Rollers With Bell Ends For a 3-3/4" Inside Width Mounting Bracket
    The Yates Bow Bell # YR400Y I see you were looking at the 5-1/4" diameter is the outermost diameter of the roller. This particular part is designed to fit on the outside of the bow roller bracket. Here is a list of the bow roller assemblies we have with bell ends that will fit a 3-3/4" inside width 4" outer width mounting bracket.

  • Availability of Bow Roller Kit that Includes End Bow Bells
    The Yates Bow Bell # YR400BLK that you referenced comes individually in that part number. For a kit that includes the 4 Inch roller, 2 end bells, and corrosion-resistant hardware, you will want the Yates Bow Roller Assembly with Bells for 4 Inch Wide Bracket # YR450BLK-400BLK. This kit includes the TPR roller and end bells.

  • How to Prevent Metal Bow Roller Brackets from Contacting the Boat
    Almost all bow roller assemblies have an industry standard hardness of 85a durometers. I was able to call my contact at Yates to confirm this. I do have a solution for you but we do not have any bow rollers with a hardness rating greater than 85a durometers at this time. However, I believe the problem you are experiencing can be eliminated using a wider roller as this would in turn dissipate the weight more evenly to minimize contact with the metal brackets. I recommend using the Bow...
