Standard guide roller from the Tascam 38 8 track machine

You just cannot sell a new but old stock that has sat in a bag 5 years and think its will perfom well

they are first inspected for wear and discarded if no good (  I have no say in this and have given the lap shop a free hand here) if it looks like they will lap ok they will be tested electrically then if thats ok they will be relapped
