My dresser drawer guide wheel broke. The first two attached photos show the side with the broken guide wheel, and the last two show the side that still has the guide wheel fully intact with bearings. The part number is K-V No. 1300 DL (Left side). Made by Kilian in Syracuse, NY. Are there replacement parts available? Where can I get them? Thank you, Bob

Hello, Bob. We may very well be able to supply you with new wheels for your old track setup. Believe it or not, I actually like to use shower door wheels for drawers like this. I find they work very well despite being made for something completely different.

Before I recommend anything, though, can you tell me the diameter and thickness of the original wheel? Can you also confirm that the edge is rounded, and not flat? I think it is, but I admit that can be hard to tell from photos sometimes. 

Thanks!

Tom, The original wheel/bearing is 3/4 inch outer diameter and 1/2 inch inner diameter. The wheel/bearing itself is 1/4 inch in width. The last phot best shows how the wheel and bearings would slip over the "stub". Any insight would be helpful. Thank you, BOB

Thanks! I should have clarified this before, so I apologize. You won't be able to fit anything over that stub. The only way you could do that is to get a hold of the exact original wheel, which I don't think has been made in a long time.

My solution does require more handiwork, but I think it will fix this drawer for many years to come. It will involve cutting off that stub and screwing one of our wheels in its place.

Based on your specs, I think our 10-102 wheel will work best. This is 3/4" in diameter and 1/4" thick. It also has a rounded edge. Once you can get rid of that stub, these would just screw on.
