Looking for plastic sleeves

I need a dozen or two little plastic sleeves like this


To hold ¼” shank router bits. It’s 11/32” on the outside. What’s the name to search for them with?

Thanks!

May you have the day you deserve!

I can’t find anything that isn’t a much larger diameter.  I could print you a batch though if you don’t find them.  Just let me know.
Dave, have you tried searching for “router bit storage insert” or “router bit sleeve”? Those searches show items similar to the one in your photo.
what about plastic tubing only problem i see is no lip BUT  do you really need a lip 🙄🙄

good idea GR8t,  plastic tubing w 1/4" ID just drill out holes for the OD in a say 3/4" thick board and and cut the tube to length and put them in the holes.

Thanks! Just bought the Rockler ones, because I’m putting Amazon on time-out, quite possibly forever.

Late to the party. I see you found you answer though.

Amazon? I’ve now had too many (three strikes and they’re out) times when I’ve bought something from a third-party on Amazon, and that product never arrives, in spite of tracking saying it was delivered to my “receptionist” at least once, and always saying it was delivered. If Amazon can’t be bothered to vet their sellers, I can’t be bothered to shop there. I have better odds with picking a random seller off eBay, and if it doesn’t show up, eBay doesn’t make me wait 48 hours because “one of your neighbors probably has it.”

The FedEx guy has been dinged on those twice, and he says “yeah, you didn’t have a package that day.” And I believe him more than I do some random scammer/seller on Amazon.

Finally, I cancelled Amazon Prime back while I was still working (so more than 3.5 years ago, probably more like 5-6) because I kept ordering stuff on Wednesday morning, and it wouldn’t show up to work until the following Tuesday. I’m not the only one who thinks they should be held to their two-day delivery promise, but at least when I cancelled, they wouldn’t un-cancel you without telling.

They’re just not a good business.

sorry to hear that dave,ive always had great service.sometimes i get things the next day. returns are real easy. i just recently bought a bow sander from a partner vendor,it was a pos! so i made a claim and they credited me right away without even sending it back.
