    Default Teflon Tape Containers

    I am looking for some containers, like the ones that teflon tape comes on. The small spindles a little over 2" in diameter and with the protective cover that goes over it. Does anyone know where I could obtain such a product?

    Default Any extra's?

    If no one here knows where I can purchase some. Would any of you have any extra empty teflon spools lying around? And be willing to send them to me?
    I'd be willing to pay for the shipping cost. I'm looking for a couple hundred of them for a project I'm working on.
    Thank-you for your time.

    You may want to contact a manufacturer and see where they buy them.
    You need hundreds?

    Yes, around two hundred or so would be my goal. But to tell the tuth I'd probably be happy if I could get thirty or so of them to start with. I've been looking around on the web for a while and can't quite find anything near as small as these spools.

    I might try to contact them, but I've seen suppliers selling the in bulk pallets with thousands of them.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    We are not allowed here to refer to "teflon" tape. Dupont gets their skivvies all twisted. We refer to it as "kleenex" tape, since KimberlyClark doesn't care!

    They will be the next ones to "tradename protect" their product.
