I picked up a Shure workbench that I’d like to use for my workbench build. I’m currently disassembling to get it ready for powder coating and seeing what sort of refreshing it may need. Here’s a pic:

The drawers and doors use plastic rollers (no bearing). They’re riveted on. For the most part they roll OK but would be better if they were ball bearing or at least cleaned and lubed.
Does anyone have any suggestions for replacements? Or for the best way to try and clean and relube them?
I wasn’t able to find any obvious replacements online. To clean the existing ones I figure I should try and spray a lubricant or cleaning solution in there as best I can, clean then use a dry silicon line after that?
