I am repairing two 60 year old aluminum Patio doors on my home. It is a mid century home and we want to keep the doors. The steel ball bearing rollers are 1.25 inches in Diameter. The center hole is 1/4 inch diameter. The roller is 7/16 wide, with the groove approximately 5/16 inch wide, inside wall to inside wall. The groove is more a U shape as the track has a flat top. I need to replace the rollers. Most available rollers are 5/16 inch wide and those will not work. The pictures are of the stationary roller assembly. Booth rollers in the door are the same. I need 4 rollers.

Thank you for reaching out to us. I'm afraid we don't sell a match for this roller. We sell the 81-224 wheel but the thickness is 5/16". Unfortunately, this appears to be our best option. I am very sorry that we can't offer a suitable replacement.
