They're called "angular contact" ball bearings.  I know that SKF has a 
fairly complete line of them, and you can likely buy them from a bearing & 
power transmission store near you.  The $16 price from the web page that you 
posted seems to be a good deal though, especially when you're reasonably 
sure they'll fit.  Bicycles, VW wheel bearings, and Waterloo built John 
Deere 2-cylinder tractor governors are some places that stick in my mind as 
applications.
