Brand new Trailer Jockey Wheel – Side Wind, 1200lbs, 6inch wheel. Supplied by Ritz Marine, with full warranty. New shop stock, not a used private sale.
Trailer Jockey Wheel with Side Wind Handle
This side-wind jockey wheel has a 544 kg (1,200 lbs) load capacity and a 6″ wheel, making it suitable for mid-size to larger boat trailers. The side-wind handle lets you raise and lower the trailer tongue smoothly without bending over, and the 6″ wheel rolls easily across gravel, concrete, and marina surfaces.
Corrosion-resistant construction makes it a practical choice for boat trailer use in Malta, where regular saltwater exposure takes its toll on trailer components.
Side Wind vs Top Wind
A side-wind mechanism is easier to operate in tight spaces because the handle turns horizontally rather than vertically. It’s also less likely to catch on anything when the trailer is hitched. For a lighter-duty option, see our 48mm jockey wheel with 8″ wheel.
