This is one of those items I've had on the back burner for a little while. These are Delrin rollers (instead of nylon) with a stainless "bearing".
The Delrn in a glass impregnated resin that is tougher than the nylon, and in theory should last longer. Instead of using the stamped nylon star washer like OEM, I machines a custom size washer to replace it. Sold in sets of 8 for $19.99 + shipping ($5 priority mail). I have a few other items that are coming out too, so they could be combined. Sign up now these will start shipping lat next week, after May 10th they'll be $25 a set. Attached thumbnail(s)

No "snowflake" with the early rollers? My concern would be the stainless washers wearing on the aluminum channel.

QUOTE(9146986 @ Apr 27 2010, 05:52 AM)  No "snowflake" with the early rollers? My concern would be the stainless washers wearing on the aluminum channel. True that the stainless is harder than the plastic snowflake washers, here's what I came up with from evaluating a few of these. 1- when you remove the rollers the snowflake is filled with all the crud that get's into the channel. The dirt trapped in the snowflake will act like sandpaper to the extent that it made more sense to make the stainless washers for the roller to ride on. and 2- if the purpose of the "star" washer was to act like a spring to put tension on the roller and channel, it was not successful as upon dis-assembly the were compressed. The wear on the aluminum should be no more that the washer as the edge of the stainless washer rides inside the Delrin roller. I f you were truly concerned a little lithium grease in the track would go a long way |
