I'm looking for some of these tandem roller assemblys for a 8' X 4' glass sliding door.They look similar to your 81-171 part. The aluminum extrusion is 3/4" wide X 5-1/16" long X 1-9/16 high. What would you recommend as a replacement?
Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris. Yes, I would go with the 81-171 as well. Let us know if you have any other questions.

I need replacement rollers. The closest I found on your website was Roller 81-171, however they are nylon, and I believe mine are metal. Would this be a proper replacement? Do they come in metal rollers?

Hello, Bill. I agree that the 81-171 looks like a good match, though we unfortunately don't supply it with metal wheels. We also don't sell a corresponding metal wheel in the same size (1-11/16"). You may be able to find that size at a local hardware store, though.
