Broken roller (as pictured, the bracket is OK).

I've found 3/4" but these are 1". Also as pictured, the area where the screw goes in is raised out 1/8" where the replacements I'm finding are flat.

Thanks for posting. The closest wheel we have that comes to mind is our 10-101, but this has a diameter of 7/8". Double-check your diameter; if it's indeed 1", let me know and I'll see if we have any other alternatives. Many thanks.

In addition to Bob's recommendation, another part you can consider is our 32-096. This is a drawer wheel, funnily enough, but we use drawer wheels for showers all the time (and vice versa). This product in particular has a rounded edge like yours but is 1-1/8" in diameter, not 1". Would it be possible to use this wheel despite that 1/8" difference in size?

Thanks for both of you responses.
By my measurement, it does seem to be exactly one inch but it may not matter if we go slightly bigger or smaller.

It very well may not! This is one of those things where you'll probably have to mess around with it a bit before you can get something to work, but I think both options are worth considering.

Good luck with this project, and please let us know if you run into any trouble or have an update.
