ITEM SPECIFICS
The BDA040 is a 6″ red poly self-centring keel roller designed to automatically guide your boat’s keel into the correct position during launch and retrieval.
This roller features tapered outer edges that gently nudge the boat toward the centre line, reducing sway and misalignment—especially useful on windy days or uneven ramps.
Crafted from soft yet durable red polyurethane, the roller provides non-marking, UV-stable protection for fibreglass hulls. Its 17mm bore fits snugly on standard 16mm trailer spindles.
The included galvanised steel bracket and 75x50mm clamp-on stem adjusters allow for flexible, weld-free installation—making upgrades and replacements a breeze.
