I think I know what I need, the problem is getting it. The suppliers I've found so far either want huge MOVs or don't stock the size :-(.
What I want is 3 feet (or 1 meter) of PFA heat-shrink tubing with a wall thickness of 1.6mm to 2mm. Finished (shrunk) size to be just under 22mm.
Is there anyone out there who can help?
