I need 4 bronze plain sleeve bearings 5/16" ID X 3/8" OD X 3/8" Deep
for a project. Anybody know a source for them? When I did a google
search, all I got were major manufacturers, import companies, or parts
for hobbies. I guess I'm looking for a giant hardware store on the web
where I can order them. Thanks.

Try your local ACE hardware. Lowes or HD may also have these.

Try www.mcmaster.com or look for a bearing supply house.

This is Turtle.

You can go to a bearing place and get anything you want. i use '' Bearings are
Us '' in Alexandria , Louisiana 71463 and they have never not had or could not
get anything I wanted at all. they got cheap 1/8" piller bearings to the 50 ton
6" roller bearings. The one thing about them is they have not got the Dollar
signs in their eyes when talking to you or pricing the bearings. i can just go
by and tell them what type and describe it and they go in the back and come out
with it.

They have got to have a bearing place some where near you.

I need 4 bronze plain sleeve bearings 5/16" ID X 3/8" OD X 3/8"

Common item at most electric motor repair shops. They may also have Oilite
bearings if you prefer that. Another common source is any automotive machine
shop. Bronze is often used for valve guides, and one typical valve guide could
be sliced up into the 4 pieces you need. HTH

Thanks for the tips, but none of the sites have precisely what I need.
I've already tried every hardware store in Philly to no avail. The
McMaster website is huge! But doesn't have the ID - OD I need. Guess
I'll just keep on looking or pay a machine shop $500 apiece for them.
