Different slide rollers for new vinyl floor?

Hey guys
We are getting new vinyl floor installed and wonder if the slides rollers will leave an indent on the floor where they rest or travel in and out? Are there different ones you can get that would work better on this type of floor?

I have 3 rollers that are attached to the slide and 2 that are attached to the frame. The three that are attahced to the slide are accessable and are the hard white plastic type. These are the ones im concerned with as they are the ones thay travel over the floor.

Any advice would be very much appreciated!

Don't know about a "softer" roller, but there are "slide slickers" available to protect the floor. I was thinking about them but they are pretty expensive for what they are. I think I'm going to cut some flooring material into 8 inch by 3 foot strips and lay them on the floor before I bring in my slides.

We put an engineered wood floor in our coach. We went to Walmart and bought 4 of the plastic table place matts for $.89 each. Just put them down where the rollers go each time we bring the slides in. Cheap and protects the floor.

We just had ours done and they gave us 6 plastic strips to put down on the floor for the rollers to ride on. It's amazing to see the indentations that are already on the new plastic.

They gave me something like them, but they are flat with no ridges.
