Chris,
a rubber tubing (for fuel) is quite OK. No backlash.. And way cheaper..
It will also provide isolation for vibrations (from steppers.. if this is a concern at all )..

Thanks Bojan,

I managed to find these couplings in a couple of places on the internet, the asking price is incredible!
I think the rubber tubing solution will be the answer!
I have a length of medical oxygen tubing that might just do the trick!

Cheers
Chris

Try Blackwoods.

Pretty much if they don't have it , it doesn't exist or hasn't been invented when it comes to hardware .
