Interesting idea. How do you put a sleeve on something? Is it something that a layperson can do, or is it some industrial process?

Great idea. I'm told it is UHMW-PE, correct?
It really sounds promising, but I can't find it in "dowel" form. Any ideas who might have it?

If you were to try a piece of steel rod about 12mm diameter and slide it up inside a piece of garden hose you might have a cheap unit that won't do a serious injury. Maybe even a layer of silastic to glue it all together.
Once the piece of steel rod gets a few bends it could be straightened in a vice.
Hope this helps, Peter
