I want to replace the original 2 bottom sliding door rollers - horizontal & vertical. I work in an engineering polymers company so can get some new rollers machined from our bearing grade nylon 6/12, only problem is I need to know what size to make them!
If I take the old ones out and measure them I won't know what size they were originally, which isn't helpful for making new ones.

Anyone any ideas or original rollers they can measure?

Cheers,
Rob

buy a pair of new ones and then ypou can copy exactly as you wish then put new items in for sale section

Bottom sliding door roller takes a fair deal of weight would nylon last?
