I am looking for a replacement (8 hangers total) for a broken bypass closet door hanger. Only one broken but will replace all four doors since the hangers are all about the same age. The hangers are mounted on the back of the doors. The image below has measurements and shape. Stamped 3/4" FRONT and 3/8" BACK. Manufacturer mark is a large W and next to that 674. The doors are hollow core, wood, 1-1/4 inch thick. Any suggestions?

Hi there, Judy! Thank you so much for the thorough information, it's a huge help. I have seen this roller a few times in the past. It's not made anymore, unfortunately, but after looking through my records I see that we have recommended our 23-010 as a replacement each time it came up. This roller has a 1/2" offset and a 3/4" diameter wheel, which you can see in the diagram below. Now, the bad news that we've never received confirmation that this part works from anyone who tried it. It looks like they simply never got back to us, which is just how it goes sometimes. With that in mind I cannot guarantee that it will work for you, but it does seem to be our best option. I'm sorry that we can't give you a more confident recommendation. Dimensions for 23-010

Thank you. I will give it a try. Your specs seem closest to what I need. I will try to give you feedback if the suggested hangers work.
Not surprised my model is no longer made. This building was built in 1960 and I have been told the closet doors are original to the building.
