Made from black natural rubber, the roller provides a smooth rolling surface that supports the boat's weight while protecting the hull from scuffing and abrasion as it moves along the trailer bunks or frame. It measures 3-1\/2 inches in diameter and 11-3\/4 inches wide, with a 5\/8 inch shaft bore that fits standard trailer roller brackets and shaft sizes used on many small to mid-size boat trailers. This roller is intended as a direct replacement for original-equipment keel rollers that have worn, cracked, or hardened with age and UV exposure, restoring smooth, low-friction contact so the boat glides on and off the trailer without binding or dragging. Installation is straightforward: the worn roller is removed from its shaft and bracket, and the CE Smith 29500 roller is installed in its place using the same shaft and mounting hardware. CE Smith manufactures a full line of trailer parts and accessories, including rollers, brackets, fenders, and bearings, for the boat trailer aftermarket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e CE Smith\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black natural rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11-3\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShaft Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Dimensions (L x W x H):\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.5 x 3.2 x 3.2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 768296002176\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 Year Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the CE Smith 29500 keel roller made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 29500 keel roller is made from black natural rubber, chosen for durability and smooth rolling contact with the hull.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the CE Smith 29500 keel roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e This roller measures 3-1\/2 inches in diameter and 11-3\/4 inches wide, with a 5\/8 inch shaft bore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat shaft size does part 29500 require?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 29500 keel roller has a 5\/8 inch shaft size, matching standard trailer roller shafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the 29500 keel roller fit my boat trailer?\u003c\/strong\u003e It fits standard trailer roller brackets and shaft sizes, which covers most small to mid-size boat trailers using a 5\/8 inch shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I install the CE Smith 29500 keel roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove the worn roller from its existing shaft and bracket, then slide the CE Smith 29500 roller onto the same shaft and reassemble the bracket hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the CE Smith 29500 roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 29500 keel roller is black.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the CE Smith 29500 keel roller weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 29500 keel roller weighs 3.4 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the CE Smith 29500 an original-equipment style part?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, keel rollers of this type are original equipment on many boat trailers, and the 29500 is designed as a direct replacement roller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included when I order part 29500?\u003c\/strong\u003e The order includes one CE Smith 29500 keel roller; the shaft and mounting bracket from your existing trailer are reused during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the CE Smith 29500 keel roller genuine CE Smith or aftermarket?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 29500 is a genuine CE Smith part, manufactured by CE Smith for the boat trailer aftermarket.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CE Smith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027474948315,"sku":"CES-29500","price":35.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/61r7jOFS9ZL.jpg?v=1785331007","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/ce-smith-keel-roller-12-inch-black-rubber-5-8-inch-shaft-boat-trailer-support-roller-29500","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
