Roller - Where to find?

[Metal Thrasher]

My Elliptical excercise machine ripped up one of hte lower rollers. And the company that made it went bankrupt and all warranties are void plus the company that bought their assets may or may not supply the parts in the future ( wait a couple weeks and call us back)...

So where can I get something like this:

The bearing is a standard 6203 douible shielded bearing. But I really need the outer shell or the combined set up. The outer shell measures 2.5" and .5" wide. The inner diameter is 1.55" or .65" if you include the bearing. The outer surface seems to be rubber or urethane.

I tried McMaster - Carr Hardware and was told NO. Any other places I should look?

Maybe a bit redneck, but what about some rubber hose from NAPA that was just tight enough to hold onto the bearing? If you, or a friend has a lathe you could probably make a new pair out of a roller skate roller.

How about those wheels like are used in warehouses and supermarkets where they slide boxes on and stuff on.

At this point I am looking at Roller blade / skate wheels. Grainger had the same offerings.

I saw a shitload of wheels somewhere recently, just can't remember where. Harbor Freight maybe?

This is the company that does our vulcanized rubber idlers. Not sure if they will do one part or not, but worth a shot if you run out of options.
