Default Window Rollers

How do you know when they need to be replaced?

I've got no flat spots, gouges or anything like that. They may have wear but have no way to tell that without a diameter spec. They turn easily, however the ones on the window don't spin with inertia, although it takes no effort to turn them. The others spin freely. All seem tight on the roller shaft.

Thanks

You may have answered your own question...

Clean 'em up and put 'em back in there.

I felt it was all the old dry greese that was a problem.
