ROLLERS FOR SIDE ADJUST
PATIODOORS TANDEM ROLLERS

Designed for easy installation and
trouble-free service, these high quality
radial ball bearing-equipped rollers
encompass Truth Hardware’s unique
advantage in that we manufacture our
own ball bearings. This allows Truth
complete control over all aspects of
design and production of our roller
assemblies. While others may use soft
stamped metal parts in the production of
their wheels, Truth’s bearing raceways
are machined from solid steel bar stock
on the most modern automatic machines.
These rollers are then heat treated for
wear resistance and plated for corrosion
resistance. This method provides the
longest lasting true running rollers
capable of carrying the heaviest loads.
