Hi all - I have been tirelessly looking for a product I purchased many years ago - it was tiny split loom cable wrapping, but instead of plastic it was silicone. I remember it doing an amazing job of taming microphonics through the cables.

I recently picked up a new pair of headphones and the cable noise is insane, but everything else is awesome. The physical store I bought the silicone cable wrap from is long gone and I cannot for the life of me find the same stuff again. All I can find is plastic cable wrapping in headphone size like this https://www.amazon.com/VizGiz-Protector-Anti-Fracture-Management-Protection/dp/B096KGVDH1

I have tried to make my own by cutting silicone tubing in a spiral, but its incredibly labor intensive and I can only pull off a few inches at a time before I screw it up. Has anyone seen something like this, or maybe at least what it's called so I can track some down? It was hands down the best thing I ever bought for taming microphonics but it just seems to not exist now. The closest I can find is silicone split loom for wrapping fiber optic cables but its just too big.
