Single roller glass sliding door replacement, door manufacturer unknown

Question

Need help replacing an early 1980s construction slider glass door roller, photos shown. No manufacturer shown on the door or the roller.

Measurements as best I can tell are 2 1/2 in long, 1 1/4 tall,11/16 wide excluding tab width, concave wheel 1 1/4, wheel is 3/8 wide, ball bearing assembly, two screws at the end, tabs are at the screw end nearly centered, maybe a 1/2 inch from the top orientation.

Width at tabs looks like 7/8 but I had to hammer them inward a bit to get the assembly out of the formed aluminum door base. Width of the assembly body without the tabs is

What I see on your site is the 81-032B found here. https://www.swisco.com/Sliding-Door-Roller/pd/Patio-Glass-Door-Single-Wheel-Rollers/81-032B

Any help appreciated, I never knew so many different types exist.

Thanks for being there and thank you for still being at work helping us keep the economy running.

Thanks for contacting us. I don't believe the 81-032B will work for you. The issue is that our roller has those bumps on the sides that yours lacks. I think they'll only get in the way.

We have two other rollers that may be more suitable. See our 81-009 and 81-081. My only concern is the height of the housing; for each of these products, that measurement is 1-3/16", not 1-1/4". Do you think you could use them regardless?
