Had to replace the centering bushing on my Hood furling drum. While apart examined the delrin ball bearings. The top races were a bit abused by the sun. They are prohibitively expensive as i intend to upgrade in a year or two.
Found them on Amazon 100 for 8$. My gear uses 92.

search under industrial and scientific

"Acetal Ball, Grade I, 3/8" Diameter (Pack of 100)"

Acetal is what the tradename Delrin is. The bag came labeled Delrin.

A very cheap alternative....
