It might be worth a look at the Ultrascale website -

You will probably find that the 2.48mm is actually 3/32", give or take a smidgen.
Even if they don't do an off-the-shelf solution, they can undertake a special for you. Make sure you read the notes about the current delivery times though!

By all means ask, but I know that a number of the gear ranges described on the Ultrascale Website are no longer available and that certain "special runs" are no longer undertaken. I get the impression that the company is either "downsizing" or changing its emphasis to a more limited product line.
Alternative might be via Chris Stapleton (owner of Sharman Wheels amongst other well known model brand names), who has some gear manufacturing capability.

Yes - now you mention it, that might be a better idea than Ultrascale. Don't know why I didn't think of that, especially as I have an envelope addressed to Sharman Wheels just about to be posted!
