This one is 250mm long, so it covers a much deeper part of the gate frame and keeps contact even when the gate rides slightly high or low. The roller is black nylon, 40mm across, on a steel spindle with a 17mm threaded end, washers and two nuts. The overall length is 296mm. A load rating is not published for this line. The price shown is for one roller with its spindle and fixings.
