Back in 2013-14 I bought a bunch of protective tubes for motor casings from a company that I have completely lost track of. The tubes were clear vinyl/plastic thin tubing with black rubber covers for both ends, and they were (in my mind) a perfect way of protecting the casing from dings and scratches from rough storage. They were cut to size for each motor casing, with various thicknesses to accommodate standard 24/29/38/54/75/98mm sizes.

Does anyone have any idea who sold these or what the company name was? I suspect they are no longer in business...

I tried to look at some of plastics companies for similar bulk tubing and end caps but was not successful.

Thanks!

You can also get shipping tubes from Mcmaster Carr as well. A little cheaper than uline, but essentially the same product. I now use the plastic mesh sleeves so I can store smaller diameter motors inside larger diameter motors. Saves storage space. I then put them into the plastic shipping tubes so I know what motor is where.
