Heavy-duty sliding glass door rollers

A home owner from Colorado says:

April 27, 2022

One of the wheels on one of these roller assemblies broke (ball bearings leaking out, door grinds open), so I'm looking for a replacement part. The only marking on here is a "V". Dimensions are listed below. I was thinking your part number 81-151 would work; however, the rollers I currently have are taller, with what I assume is an aluminum load-bearing spacer on top. So I'm not sure if that part 81-151 would suffice in this case.

Wheels: 1 1/4" flat nylon with ball bearings (no groove, just flat rolling surface)
Length including mounting flanges: 6 3/8"
Length excluding mounting flanges: 4 9/16"
Height excluding aluminum spacer: 1 7/16"
Height including aluminum spacer: 1 9/16"
Width: 11/16"

I don't think the 81-151 is what you want. Based on the design of your old roller, and your dimensions, I think our 81-156 is a much better option. I just recommend comparing your measurements against ours directly just to be sure. Ours differ slightly, so it pays to be safe.
