It is not a commercial bearing, Douglas manufactured them in house.

Many folk substitute a plain thrust bearing made out of oil impregnated sintered bronze (Oilite). Advantageous if the surfaces the original bearing balls ran against are pitted and provides a bit of braking effect if the clutch has a tendency to drag on release.

Hi Yes, Simply bearings sell a needle thrust race that will fit straight in.

Hi  alan you wouldn't have a bearing number by any chance but thanks for the information

Yes,  the S6 size is 60 X 85 X 5 needle roller
  and the EW I think is 50 X 70 X 5 but both bearings are thinner than the original and
will need a thicker backing washer.
the needle bearing ref is AXK6085ASand AXK5070AS

Any doubts give me a ring 01342-834133 Alan
