Boat Trailer 12″ Parallel Keel Roller – 298mm Long, 75mm Diameter, 26mm Bore, Black Rubber (SKU: PRBK300X26)

12″ Parallel Keel Roller – Built for Big Boats and Bigger Loads

The PRBK300X26 is a large and robust parallel keel roller designed to support heavy-duty boat trailers. At 298mm in length with a 26mm bore, it’s perfect for trailers using large shafts or requiring extended contact with the boat keel during loading and unloading.

Made from 85 Duro black rubber, this roller is firm enough to guide without flex and absorbs impact while maintaining hull alignment. Its parallel profile ensures even contact across the full surface, especially useful for straight keel designs.

Product Specifications

Where It Works Best:

When you need length and load capacity – go parallel, go PRBK300X26.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q: Will this fit a 25mm spindle?
  A: Yes – the 26mm bore provides a slightly loose fit for 25mm shafts, which allows the roller to rotate smoothly.
• Q: Is this suitable for fibreglass boats?
  A: Absolutely – the non-marking rubber protects fibreglass hulls while offering strong support.
• Q: Can this be used in saltwater conditions?
  A: Yes – the rubber is marine-grade and UV-stable, suitable for salt and sun exposure.
• Q: What’s the benefit of the parallel shape?
  A: It provides even surface contact across flat keels and adds more bearing area for load distribution.

Usage Guide

1. Slide onto a 25mm spindle (will sit loosely in 26mm bore).
2. Center the roller along the trailer’s support channel.
3. Use retaining washers or pins to secure the roller.
4. Check regularly for salt buildup and rinse after use.

Evaluation & Recommendation

With its large dimensions and heavy-duty build, this roller is made for trailers carrying substantial weight. Ideal as a primary keel roller in the mid-section of the trailer where consistent contact is essential.

A big roller for big jobs – this one doesn’t mess around.
