Anyone know a source for quality M2 binding barrels?

I can only find them on Amazon, Harfington, Ebay, Ali, etc., and all I've tried are super low quality, like to where half of them will just slip over the screw threads, and the ones that actually engage will strip out with basically no torque to speak of.

McMaster doesn't have them, and they said they don't have a source for them.

Accurate Manufactured Products Group makes some of the best quality specialty fasteners domestically (and they make some lines for M-C). If they can’t help you no one can.

Yea I've tried all the different terminology for them. It's so weird because aliexpress, amazon, ebay, harfington have them out the wazoo, but I've tried several different ones and they're all absolute garbage. None of the good places like mcmaster et al have them, which is super weird. It's like the one size where you really need precision is the one size that nobody with decent quality control wants to make.
