Try Specialised Plastics in Lambton.

You can find them in the yellowpages they carry all kinds of plastics in sheets, rods, tubes and sections.

I used to deal with Cadillac Plastics at Silverwater in Sydney,
ph (02) 9647 1166 . They have a heap of different stuff including Teflon also, and they may be able to mail you something.

Cheers

Graham,
The sheets come in 1.37m, 75cm, .75mm.
If you have them delievered, there is a minimum order.
Otherwise if you can go in personally, you can buy just one.
It's a great material to work with and very strong.
