Need rollers for ancient windows

Our windows are about 43 years old, and they are still fine with no leaks, but the rollers on a few of them have worn out. Unsurprisingly, we have been unable to find an exact match for this roller. Can you help us find something that might work, even if it needs a bit of trimming or grinding?

Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, this roller has been discontinued for some time and is not currently something we can get a hold of. I am sorry for the inconvenience.
I don't believe any of our other rollers can replace it due to its unique shape, but if you wanted to give something a try you can see our section here.

I sliced the flanges off 87-168 so they would slide all the way into the channel and then used epoxy to secure them in place. It works well and takes only a few minutes.
