    Rutherfords will probably have them, I've also seen Gary at north east tackle fitting tip rings before. They can do it for you I think for a small price

          As mentioned.

          Heat old tip ring up & slide it off then use that one as a size for replacement,
          Then cut some thin strips of hot melt stick & feed them into the new tip ring, then slide onto the rod blank & reheat to melt glue
          Simples!!!
