Not the 9145 specifically, but I've refurbed a number of QIC drive
capstans using silicone vacuum hose, usually the 4mm variety.  Search on
eBay for "4mm vacuum hose"--there are lots of sellers.  The stuff seems
to have the right durometer for the job.   It's very "stretchy", you can
stretch it over the bare metal shaft without losing concetricity.  You
can use a bit of polyurethane glue if it shows any tendency toward slipping.
