What material?
I could probably knock one out in delrin in work, but being a plastic it won't take any out-of-plane bending, however not sticky or squeaky

Thanks, but it doe need a bit of movement. so rubber or poly is what I need.

Im getting the feeling I'm going to struggle with this one.

Hi there. I've got a 1 1/16" OD metalastic bush you can have. You might reduce its outer dia to suit. 1/2" ID. 35mm overall length. Looks like this...

Thanks, it appears they do list the correct item...

hopefully they are cheaper than the other possibility which is a bush from a caterham at £12 plus postage
