Is it a needle or a ball bearing?

If you have a local bearing supply house, you can take it there, they
will tell you what you need
Interestingly, we are back to one of the BIG issues from the early days
of ball bearing - failures of bearing that rarely move, out in the
weather, under heavy load
Bronze bearing remained in common use in that situation for a LONG time,
but need an oil reservoir.
My pet thing - again, is this is where the PROPER use of plastic bearing
materials would probably be the best thing.

I have a US tower TX-455 that tilts over.
The bearing in the top of the raising fixture's sheave needs
replacing.
The matching sheave on the tower has the same bearing and is still in
good shape.
I can press out the old bearing and press in a new bearing.
Can someone please tell me the brand name and model number of the
bearing that they have used for this replacement?
Bearing bore size is about 12 mm. OD is about 42 mm. Width is about
13 mm.
The worn out bearing says: NICE PHILA K8
Sincerely appreciate any help.
