Elite AH108 4" Power V-Wheel — sold singly. Solid steel, gold zinc plated, with ball bearings. This is the load wheel a sliding or rolling gate rides on, running in the V of an inverted angle-iron track. Buying two? The AH107 is the same wheel supplied as a pair. For a heavier gate, see the 6 in. AH110.

Check the axle before you order. This wheel takes a 1/2 in. axle bolt; the 6 in. AH110 takes a 5/8 in. axle. Measure what is on the gate now rather than going by wheel diameter alone.
When to replace them. Worn V-wheel bearings are the usual cause of a sliding gate that grinds, judders or drags as it travels, and of a gate that sits low at one end. Replace wheels in pairs so the gate stays level and the load stays even — the AH107 pair is the usual choice for that.
What else you may need. If the brackets are rusted or you are hanging a new gate, add V-wheel mounting plates. For the full range of wheels, guide rollers, catches and drive chain, see sliding gate hardware.
