Description
Overview:
This Maypole Keel Vee Roller is a V-shaped centre roller for boat trailers, made from a durable synthetic compound in black for long service life. It supports and guides the boat's keel during launching and recovery, helping to centre the hull and reduce scuffing. The roller has a 5 inch (127 mm) width and a 16 mm bore to suit standard keel roller brackets that use a 16 mm spindle. Its working diameter range of 42-56 mm makes it suitable for a wide variety of small to medium boats. Weighing only 280 g, it is easy to handle during maintenance. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): MP462. Compatible with popular Maypole setups including MP470 and TR470.
