Trailer Jockey Wheel 360 kg (200 x 50 mm, Ø48 mm)

This 360 kg-rated jockey wheel is designed for large boats and heavy trailers where maximum stability is required during launching, loading, and maneuvering. Robust construction: made of thick-wall steel with a hot-dip galvanized coating, this support wheel withstands substantial loads (up to 360 kg vertical nose weight) without bending or failure. It’s an excellent choice for big powerboats, yachts, and heavy RIBs where the tongue weight on the trailer is higher. The wheel measures 200x50 mm and is crafted from solid rubber – it’s a no-flat tire with no inner tube, meaning it cannot puncture. The solid rubber wheel performs reliably on hard surfaces (asphalt, concrete) and requires minimal upkeep.

The jockey assembly features a 90° swivel bracket mechanism, allowing the wheel to be quickly swung up to a horizontal position when the trailer is hitched to a tow vehicle. This swing-back mechanism is convenient because it removes the need to completely disassemble the wheel; simply pull the release pin and rotate the wheel upward, where it locks parallel to the trailer frame. The included clamp has an inner diameter of Ø48 mm, which is a standard size compatible with most boat trailers; it firmly grips the jack’s tube via a large screw handle for tightening.

Use cases & recommendations: This heavy-duty jockey wheel is ideal for boat trailers carrying approximately 6–8+ meter boats or a total weight (boat + trailer) of up to about 2000–2500 kg. For example, large fishing vessels, mid-sized yachts, or cabin cruisers can benefit from its high load capacity. When maneuvering a heavy trailer, the solid rubber wheel provides stability on smooth, firm terrain; on softer or uneven ground (gravel, grass), its relatively smaller diameter may sink in – move slowly or use additional support in those conditions. Always lock the jockey wheel in the raised position before driving, to prevent it from hitting bumps or obstacles on the road. Periodically check that the clamp is tight and the screw mechanism is clean and greased so it turns freely. With proper use, this 360 kg jockey wheel greatly eases the hitching and moving of your boat on land, ensuring safety and convenience for your towing setup.
