the wood glides have a tendency to swell in humid weather, that's why I installed metal ones.
Center glides, yes, are available on line. Amazon has them starting at $18 for wood/metal combo and $25 for all wood.
They have a larger profile (size) than metal, and I’d check the existing dimensions.
When installing, I’d use 3 fasteners: ribbed shank finish nail on the ends into the drawer box, and both wood glue & epoxy glue in alternating patches.
They’ll need to set-up for 24 hours before use
I checked online and see that you can buy wooden drawer glides at Home Depot and on Amazon Pat.
Yes, I have seen them on Amazon and Lowe's.
A number of years ago I needed to replace a wooden drawer glide. Stopped by a cabinet shop with the broken guide and they made a new one, quick and easy.
J, yes, the existing ones are metal.
The crux of the solution is if the wood ones will fit.
