Re: Question about Bearings?

IGUS makes some really nice bushings for small holes like this.
You would most likely want a flanged plain bearing. Or McMaster sells plastic and bronze bushings either of which would work, and be lighter than a ball bearing.

Re: Question about Bearings?

While you might be able to get by with a plain hole (if properly dimensioned and finished), you'd be well advised to consider an oil-impregnated bronze bearing. They are very inexpensive in the small sizes - well under a dollar. There are a number of 1/4" inside diameter bearings of varying lengths for 50 to 75 cents each here:
