... and where I could buy a few of them?

I don't know what they are properly called--however I've seen them in the textile industry, in several size ranges, used to hold yarn spiral wound ("universal wound") on cardboard, phenolic, or metal tubes for both winding and paying off into other processes (from "creels").

You may want to look around at textile manufacturer's (and supplier's) sites.

How big is it? I've seen similar things on ends of some fasteners(auto-related). The ones I've seen were maybe 5/16" long.

Hi Stan

I'd be looking for some with max o.d. about 11/16 so the length would be about 2 to 3 inches I suppose.
