We buy TSSOPs from Digikey, but the tubes they come in are too short for our PNP machine. I'm trying to buy just a handful of these IC tubes. These say 26020129 TSSOP 4.4 0949 on them. We'd like about 20". Can anyone help?

I ordered some of those ICs but the tubes they sent them in were shorter ones. I need about 21" long.

Hi Gaz, I know it's not the most elegant solution but why don't you just buy 20 tubes of TSSOP logic IC's such as 74HCT27PW (depends on width)- these type of parts are around $0.05 each so you are not going to be paying more than $2.50 for a tube of

Thanks very much. I did contact ITW and they have MOQ of $1800. We just need about 5x 21" tubes. Do you know by chance if these others do small quantities?
