I'm trying to find out if it is at all possible to buy these rails to store TO247's and other IC's, but I'm not even sure what to search for. Does anyone know where I can find these?

There aren't any places that will sell you tubes, you might be able to beg a few from an electronics store or forum members... What do you need them for?

I'm a nomadic uni student who moves around a fair bit and I have a ton of mosfets/igbts/diodes in TO247 or similar packages. I'm a little afraid sticking them in a ESD bag will end up with some of them crushed and/or lost. Plus I'd want to keep them sorted, as of right now they sit in tin-foil lined parts drawers but I have to bag every drawer before the move...
I got a big move coming up in 2 weeks and I tend to treat my stuff somewhat roughly. If there is anyone in Canada that has enough rail for ~40-50 TO247's, I'd be really grateful and we could probably work something out.

Personally I store my parts in these things, I think they are amazing. I just lay antistatic foam in the bins and stick my parts in it. Much better than the sliding drawer types.
