2x2 V'd Tubing
The 2x2 V'd Tubing is a 2x2-inch square steel tubing section that has been V-bent to match a boat hull's deadrise angle, used on Magic Tilt boat trailers as a crossmember support, bunk mount, or keel guide bracket, available at Skipper B Trailers in Westwego, Louisiana. The V-bend in this tubing follows the same angle as the V-hull on your boat — creating a structural support piece that matches the hull shape for proper contact and weight distribution when the boat sits on the trailer. On a boat trailer, the V'd crossmember is what positions the bunks or rollers at the correct angle to support the hull evenly on both sides of the keel. When this piece is bent, corroded through, or missing, the bunks sit at the wrong angle and the hull doesn't rest in the correct position during transport on Interstate 10, Highway 90, the Westbank Expressway, and the roads between Westwego, Marrero, Harvey, and the boat launches across Jefferson Parish and Greater New Orleans.
Louisiana boaters who maintain or rebuild their trailer's bunk support system understand that the V'd crossmember is the structural foundation for how the bunks contact the hull. If the V-angle doesn't match the hull's deadrise, the bunks make contact at the wrong point — concentrating the boat's weight on a narrow strip instead of distributing it across the full bunk length. Over time, incorrect bunk contact creates stress points on the hull, causes the boat to sit off-center, and accelerates bunk wear. The 2x2-inch square tube provides the structural rigidity to hold bunks in position under the full weight of the boat, and the factory V-bend ensures the angle is correct for Magic Tilt trailer configurations. Whether you're Fishing Fanatic Frank replacing a corroded V'd crossmember during a bunk rebuild on his Magic Tilt, a marine repair shop fabricating bunk support systems for customer trailers in Marrero, Harvey, and Gretna, or a trailer builder who needs a pre-bent V-support for a custom bunk setup, this V'd tubing provides the correct angle without the need for a shop bender.
At $18.28, this pre-bent V'd tubing saves the time and tooling cost of bending your own. The 2x2-inch square profile provides the strength to support full boat weight on the bunks. Replace any V'd crossmember that's corroded through, bent from overload, or missing from a stripped trailer. Perfect for bunk support replacement, trailer bunk rebuilds, crossmember repairs, and Magic Tilt trailer service throughout Southeast Louisiana.
