It sounds like capillary tubes used for blood collection.

Try

aoCFdAlpQodNCSn7g
They offer samples of Teflon tubing

Also worth trying is your local hospital, capillary tubing is used in the
'blood' industry though they might not get small enough.

Very small bore tubing is also used in chemical analysis laboratories.

If you want the real deal and pen supplies for chart recorders,
Esterline-Angus are the right people.

I presently do not have a source. I am using tubing from old 
strip-chart recorders I have.

If anyone on the PSNlist knows of a source of small, flexible, 
plastic tubing, please let Kareem and I know.

Thanks- George
