Thom,
Yes, Teres is also still using a replaceable thrust plate with delrin button.
I've observed the dimple you described on all three of the Teres bearings I've used and then inspected.
Question: what prevents the wear/erosion process that turns a convex button into a concave dimple from continuing indefinitely?
