Standing 8 inches tall, 5 inches wide, and made from 1\/4 inch thick alloy steel, this bracket is engineered to handle the load and vibration of trailering without flexing or fatiguing over time. It is finished with a hot dipped galvanized coating that resists rust and corrosion from constant exposure to water, salt spray, and weather, making it suitable for both freshwater and saltwater trailer use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bracket mounts to the trailer frame in a wall-mount configuration, allowing bunk boards to be raised vertically to match a boat's hull profile and provide broader, more stable support along the keel and hull sides. It is sold individually, so multiple brackets are typically ordered to complete a bunk setup. With an item weight of 3.28125 pounds, it adds minimal weight to the trailer while reinforcing bunk board stability during towing, launching, and retrieval.\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 10161GA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vertical Bunk Bracket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 x 5 x 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.28125 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hot Dipped Galvanized\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wall Mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold As:\u003c\/strong\u003e Individually (each)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 768296005825\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the CE Smith 10161GA vertical bunk bracket used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e It mounts bunk boards vertically onto a boat trailer frame, giving the trailer the extra bunk height needed to properly cradle and support larger boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow tall is the CE Smith 10161GA bunk bracket?\u003c\/strong\u003e This bracket stands 8 inches tall, with an overall item footprint of 8 x 5 x 2 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the 10161GA bunk bracket made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made from 1\/4 inch thick alloy steel, finished with a hot dipped galvanized coating for corrosion resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the CE Smith 10161GA bracket rated for saltwater use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the hot dipped galvanized finish on this alloy steel bracket resists rust and corrosion in both freshwater and saltwater trailer environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the CE Smith vertical bunk bracket weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 10161GA weighs 3.28125 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 10161GA come as a pair or individually?\u003c\/strong\u003e The CE Smith 10161GA vertical bunk bracket is sold individually, so order multiples to complete a full bunk setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow wide is the CE Smith 10161GA bunk bracket?\u003c\/strong\u003e It measures 5 inches wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does this bracket mount to a trailer?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 10161GA uses a wall-mount style attachment to the trailer frame, allowing a bunk board to be positioned vertically against it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy would a trailer need a vertical bunk bracket instead of a standard one?\u003c\/strong\u003e A vertical bunk bracket like the CE Smith 10161GA raises the bunk board height, which helps the trailer accommodate boats with deeper or larger hulls than standard low-profile bunks allow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat thickness of steel is used in the CE Smith 10161GA?\u003c\/strong\u003e The bracket is built from 1\/4 inch thick alloy steel for rigidity under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the CE Smith 10161GA bracket rust over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e Its hot dipped galvanized finish is specifically designed to resist rust and corrosion on this alloy steel bracket during long-term trailer use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CE Smith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49027472490715,"sku":"CES-10161GA","price":18.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/71oiOqFcFqL.jpg?v=1785331049","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/ce-smith-vertical-bunk-bracket-8-inch-hot-dipped-galvanized-steel-sold-individually","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
