The roller attaches to the TradeSport load bar’s top channel with the included T-slot hardware, so you can push a kayak forward over it instead of lifting the full weight. Its padded surface is easy on hulls, and the corrosion-resistant construction holds up to wet loading days at the ramp.

KayakDIY take: Anything that lets you slide a boat instead of lifting it is worth a look. For more loading gear, see my fishing kayak accessories guide.
