Probably not delrin. Tough if not impossible to find it in a thin wall tube large enough to slip over a link.

More than likely it was the Bic pen tube. Those cheap fat white ones.

I run one of theose bics pens on my front steering arm. It's cheap and it works like a champ. Not as good as a BTA setup but for .10 it's awesome
