Installation Guide
This spool roller is typically mounted on a 5/8" diameter roller shaft (a 5-1/4" long shaft is common for a 4" roller), which fits into a 4" galvanized roller bracket. The roller and shaft are secured together using 5/8" pal nuts hammered onto each end of the shaft. The entire roller bracket assembly then attaches to the trailer's crossmember using U-bolts or other appropriate mounting hardware. The heavy-duty rubber construction and spool design allow for easy loading and unloading of various boat hull types.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this roller will fit my trailer?
This roller is designed for a 4" wide mounting bracket and a 5/8" diameter roller shaft. Measure your existing bracket and shaft to ensure compatibility. It works with most boat trailer frames when used with the correct hardware.
What else do I need to install this roller?
You will need a 5/8" diameter roller shaft (typically 5-1/4" long for a 4" roller), a 4" roller bracket, and 5/8" pal nuts to secure the roller onto the shaft. These are usually sold separately.
What is the difference between a spool roller and a straight roller?
The spool (or "self-centering") design helps guide the boat's keel during loading and unloading, making it easier to center the boat on the trailer. Straight rollers provide a flat support surface without the guiding edges.
