Good morning,
Your company was referred to me by Rockler Woodworking and Hardware as someone who might be able to help me.

I have a pair of Sauder Select Collection Mobile Metal File Cabinets. The bottom file drawer is supported on and slides out on white plastic 7/8

Thanks for your patience. I haven't been able to find this exact roller, but could you be able to replace it with something like our 10-109? I would also recommend our 33-087 screw.

Paul,
Thank you for your response and recommendation. I'm willing to give it a try. I assume that I can order the pieces and parts from you folks. I wonder if I should get a slightly longer screw in cass I have to use some washers to shim the roller into a better positions. Your thoughts?
Again, thanks so much for the follow-up.

Yep, you can order those parts directly from our site. As for the screw length, you might have to build out and use a longer screw, but I feel the 10-109 wheel and 33-087 might be all you need. Also maybe use "Lock Tite" on the threads when you finally find the best set up.
