Cast Iron Rollers

[S80RTE]

Can anyone tell me the rough weight of these rollers I have bought. I need to get them home and would like to know the weight to decide how many trips I need with my car trailer.

Well at least 3 trips , but if you have a set of oxy acetylene, it may be best to make it six

Okay I will clarify this, when I say "Car Trailer" I mean a 2500kg Ifor Williams trailer. towed by a car with max towing capacity of 2000Kg.

Those look heavy so guessing one tonne each, your car can pull 2 tones and the trailer probably weighs 500- 700 kg so 1 roller will be plenty. Tie it down tight , if it moves that could be a killer and I am not joking

The front one will be the heaviest and it will be wider than your trailer ,,if you put it on lengthways ,the roll would sit dead center but then the drawbar would hang over the side ,,either way you want some wedge shape blocks of wood jammed against it to stop it moving and plenty of straps ,,do you know anybody with a hiab lorry or a tractor and big plant trailer with ramps and push them on one by one .

If you new someone with a large timber forwarding trailer that would be the safe solution.

I really wouldn’t use a car and ifor to get those home. Get someone with a lorry

One in the trailer, one on the roof rack and the big one across the back seat with doors tied shut with baler twine.
Drive fast to get home before bumping into a Police car.
