   It's a perfect fit.  There's no room to stuff anything in. It's not what   
   I'd call a bearing, it's just a hole in the plastic.

   I looked at the Loctite page and didn't see anything to increase   
   friction.  Do you know what it is called, or used to be called???   
      
      Loctite has separate sections for different countries including the   
   US and Australia.  Also consumer and industrial.   
      
      
   I also googled    increase friction    and    liquid increase friction   
   and got technical pages about friction in general but no products.   
      
   Charlie, do you know one?  Even if it's expensive**.   Do you know what   
   such a thing is called, some special terms.  (I presume C+ is your   
   signature and not a product. )
