It centers the boat on the trailer during loading, cushions impact between the bow and the trailer's bow stand, and absorbs road shock during transit. The roller is molded from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a durable, non-marking material designed to protect the boat's hull finish from scuffing or scratches as the bow slides into position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis roller assembly ships complete with mounting hardware, including a bolt, compression nut, and washers, for straightforward installation on a compatible bow stand or winch post assembly. At 3 inches in diameter, it is sized for smaller trailer setups commonly used with bass boats, jet skis, and aluminum or fiberglass hull boats. It replaces a worn, cracked, or marked-up roller with a fresh amber unit that keeps the bow stop functioning smoothly through repeated loading and launching cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tie Down Engineering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86143\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Amber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyvinyl Chloride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 inches L x 3 inches W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt, compression nut, and washers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 081628861433\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Boat Trailer Bow Roller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is the Tie Down Engineering 86143 bow roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86143 is a 3 inch diameter bow roller, with dimensions of 3 inches by 3 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is part number 86143?\u003c\/strong\u003e Part number 86143 is amber colored, made from polyvinyl chloride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the 86143 roller made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is molded from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a non-marking material that helps protect the boat's hull finish during loading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the 86143 come with mounting hardware?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Tie Down Engineering 86143 bow roller assembly includes a bolt, compression nut, and washers for installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 86143 bow roller weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 86143 weighs 1.4 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the bow roller do?\u003c\/strong\u003e It centers the boat on the trailer during loading, cushions impact between the bow and the trailer's bow stand, and absorbs road shock during transit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat types of boats is the 86143 roller suited for?\u003c\/strong\u003e This 3 inch amber roller is sized for smaller trailer setups, including bass boats, jet skis, and aluminum or fiberglass hull boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the 86143 the same as the 4 inch amber roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the 3 inch amber roller is part number 86143, while the 4 inch amber version is a separate part number, 86142.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a black version of this roller?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, Tie Down Engineering also offers this roller in black; the 3 inch black version is a different part number from the amber 86143.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is included when I order the 86143?\u003c\/strong\u003e The order includes one amber 3 inch bow roller (part number 86143) along with the bolt, compression nut, and washers needed to mount it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the 86143 roller mark or scuff my hull?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the amber PVC material of the 86143 roller is designed to be non-marking against the boat's hull.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tie Down Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48991699763419,"sku":"T-D-86143","price":18.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/51xPJMNHInL.jpg?v=1784510159","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/tie-down-86143-3-inch-bow-roller-assembly-with-mounting-hardware-amber-non-marking-poly-for-boat-trailer-winch-posts","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
