These galvanized rear wheel brackets are used to mount the rear wheel on a rolling chain link gate with a 1-5/8" or 2" round gate frame. They help secure the wheel to the rear portion of the gate so the gate rolls more smoothly and stays better supported as it moves along the track. This is an important rolling gate hardware component for building or repairing chain link cantilever and rolling gate systems that need dependable support at the back of the gate. For professional grade fence materials and replacement rolling gate hardware, these brackets provide a practical match for common galvanized chain link gate assemblies.

Installation
Install the rear wheel bracket onto the correct size round gate frame near the rear of the rolling gate.

Always verify fitment with your gate frame size and wheel setup before final tightening, especially when replacing worn hardware on an existing rolling gate.
Buying Guide
When choosing rolling gate rear wheel brackets, first match the bracket size to your gate frame diameter. This listing is offered for 1-5/8" and 2" round gate frames, which are common sizes for rolling chain link gate construction. You will also want to pair the bracket with a compatible rear wheel and confirm that the rest of your rolling gate hardware is in good condition so the gate rolls evenly and stays aligned during use.
If you are replacing only one component, inspect the wheel, axle connection, and surrounding gate frame for wear before ordering. In many cases, replacing the bracket and wheel together is the best way to restore smoother gate travel and avoid premature wear on older hardware.
