Hi there! Your roller is very similar in design to our 81-269. However, I'm not sure if the sizes match up. Look over the dimensions we show on the 81-269 store page to see if they line up.

When I took it to the hardware store they told me that it was a 1 1/8 wheel. Does it matter?

Wheel size tends to be more forgiving, since these rollers can adjust. The 81-269 has a bigger wheel at 1-1/4", but you can raise or lower the roller body to make up for that difference.

I'm more concerned with the other dimensions, like the width and height of the housing. Are those the same? If they're otherwise identical, I can look into the possibility of providing this roller with a 1-1/8" wheel. If they differ, though, then I need to know now. That's way more important than the wheel size.

Well I order the 81-269 and when they come I will know if it is a good fit. Unfortunately I had to re-install the old roller because of the weather. If it doesn't match up I will let you know and hopefully I can return what I ordered. Thanks.
