Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of roller brackets are compatible with these posts?

These posts are designed for boat trailer roller brackets that feature a female stem, meaning the bracket has an opening that fits over the post.

What is the overall length of each support post?

Each support post has a total length of 30cm.

What is the diameter of the stem post?

The stem post diameter is 34mm.

Does this product include mounting hardware?

Yes, an M8 bolt is included for mounting roller brackets to the posts.

What material are the posts made from?

The posts are constructed from steel and are zinc-plated for corrosion resistance.

How many support posts are included in this pack?

This pack includes 4 female stem support posts.

Can these posts be used for applications other than boat trailers?

While designed for boat trailers, their sturdy construction could potentially be adapted for other light-duty support applications where a female stem post is suitable, though this is not their intended use.

Troubleshooting

Roller bracket does not fit the post securely.

Verify that your roller bracket is designed for a female stem post and confirm its jaw width is within the 22mm-24mm range. Ensure the M8 bolt is properly tightened.

Post shows signs of rust or corrosion.

Rinse thoroughly with fresh water. Inspect the zinc plating for damage. For minor surface rust, it may be cleanable, but significant corrosion may indicate the need for replacement.

M8 bolt is difficult to thread.

Ensure the bolt threads and the bracket's internal threads are clean and free of debris. Do not force the bolt; re-align if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable steel construction for long-term use.
  • Zinc-plating provides excellent rust and corrosion resistance.
  • Includes an M8 bolt for straightforward mounting.
  • Pack of 4 offers value and convenience.
  • Suitable for new trailer builds or replacing existing posts.

Cons

  • Requires compatible roller brackets with a female stem design.
  • Specific dimensions may not fit all custom roller bracket setups.
  • Primarily for trailer roller support, not general use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the roller brackets on your boat trailer that require a female stem post. Ensure the bracket's stem opening matches the 22mm to 24mm width of the post's jaws.
  2. Position the female stem support post in the desired location on the trailer frame.
  3. Securely attach the roller bracket to the post using the provided M8 bolt. Tighten the bolt firmly to ensure the bracket is stable.
  4. Repeat for all necessary support posts.

Compatibility:

These posts are designed to work with boat trailer roller brackets that have a female stem design, intended to fit over the post. The stem diameter of 34mm and jaw width of 22mm-24mm are standard for many common roller bracket types. Always verify your existing or planned roller bracket specifications before purchasing.

Care:

To maintain the longevity of the zinc plating and prevent corrosion:

  • Rinse the posts with fresh water after exposure to saltwater.
  • Periodically inspect for any signs of damage or excessive wear.
  • In harsh environments, consider applying a light coat of marine-grade grease to the jaws and bolt threads annually.
