I have several guitar wall hanger brackets installed in my music
room. Typical things, they look similar to these:

The tubing (neoprene, I assume) that pads the fork has split on a
couple of them. Any idea where to get more of the tubing? All I see
on the 'net are industrial suppliers who sell large quantities for
$50 - $100. I need, like, about 12". I was in Home Depot a few days
ago and I didn't see anything like this, although I didn't have time
to scope out the entire store. What kind of place would carry
something like this? Plumbing supplies? I don't know what it's
commonly used for.


A good place to look is beer/wine making supply shops. IIRC you're in the Boston-ish area?, here is one that I found in a quick google search

all sorts of tubing by the foot.
