Roller Shaft and Pal Nuts For a Keel Roller with a 5/8 Inch Inner Shaft Diameter

Question

Question:

I would like to purchase CE32003G but extend it to include end caps. To do this it appear that I would need to buy an additional roller shaft and the end caps. Could you please tell me the roller shaft diameter and the outside diameter of the spool roller? I would appreciate any suggestions for the end caps.

You are going to need a 5/8 inch diameter shaft and pal nuts. You could use # CE10721A which comes with both. The shaft is 5-1/2 inches long. We also have other lengths that come with pal nuts: # CE10726A for 11-1/8 inches, # CE10725A for 9-1/4 inches, # CE10727A for 13-1/2 inches, or # CE10722A for 6-1/4 inches. The roller has a 3 inch diameter.
