Ceramic Taper Plugs For Crankshaft Welding

Hello,
At our shop we have a Storm Vulcan crankshaft welder. I know most journal oil galley plugs are carbon or ceramic. The ceramic worked best for our needs and we used to get them from Storm Vulcan. That is no longer the case. Where can we get some?, I need to re-supply. Thanks in advance

Have you checked all the shop supply suppliers?? This is a product that is seeing less use as time goes by and depending on the quanity used per year I would think about having a batch made.
May be more cost affective then smaller quanities

We also have difficulty finding ceramic plugs.  ra1946 were you ever able to find a supplier?  We have used carbon plugs in the past, made from carbon electrodes, but prefer not to use them due to how it it hardens the weld surrounding it.
