Tenon sources

[Mr. Guy]

I came across a heck of a steal on 2 interesting pipes at one of the antique shops over the weekend! The nomenclature is pretty well gone, one is possibly a "Practus" and the other just barely has a script "T" visible. Anyway, that's not the point. The reason they were a buck a pop is that both pipes are broke right at the tenon. Can anyone recommend a good source and material to replace what I have. I haven't broke out the calipers yet to confirm size, but they look "normal". Delrin seems to be a common option, but if there's something else I'm all ears. While I certainly don't mind getting more than two pipe tenons worth of material, I also have no plans to open a pipe repair shop any time soon.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Nomenclature! I don't hear this nearly enough on the forum! Sorry I can't help with your actual question!

Are they the screw on type or the regular push in type

Thanks for the link. They are the push in type. The stems themselves seem to be in fine shape, just need to drill out the broken tenon.

You should see the spread that steve from Vermont freehand brings to the Chicago pipe show! I thing he brings his entire inventory! That show can't get here soon enough
