Could Boat Trailer Deluxe Roller Bunk # DL21741 Be Used on a Boat Trailer with a 6,000 lb Boat

Question

Question:

I plan to put 5ft 12 sets of 3 rollers on a boat lift not a trailer. i want to put 2, 5ft pieces on each bunk for a total of 4. My boat weights 6000 lbs. will these rollers support that weight? the weight will be evenly distributed. Perhaps you have a heavier duty or can have some made to order? Please reply ASAP THX

The 3,000 lb weight capacity that each pair of these Boat Trailer Deluxe Roller Bunks # DL21741 can handle is only for one pair. If you evenly distribute the weight and add more pairs you could have a strong enough setup to handle your 6,000 lb boat.
