If you only need a few like this, try calling some of the utility contractors
in your area. They will always have the dead ends and the guys that also do the
power work will also have the insulators. They will probably be able to sell
you a few without too much trouble.
BTW, the utility guys will usually call the "dead ends" "preforms" (different
industry, different terminology :-), but they are the same thing. The
telco/cable guys use 1/4" EHS strand for a support line for their cables so
they will always have hardware for that. The preforms are cheap enough from the
crew's perspective that they are occasionally used as temporary "twist ties" to
hole up cable prior to lashing.
You can order the stuff from Graybar too (probably the telecom division, but
the power division can get stuff too), but I don't know about their prices.
I've only ever ordered by the carton at work.
