Stop plug tool

We are looking for a replacement tool for the stop plugs used throughout a liquid cooling rig, it's like a screwdriver key made of plastic so doesn't scratch the plugs. We got one (alphacool brand) with some of the plugs previously purchased but it's lost. We would like to buy a few replacements but cannot find them for sale, are these available or do they only come as a gift when a certain number of plugs are purchased?

When I inquired about this part, support informed me that it is not available for purchase. When I asked if they could include one with my order, I never received a response. I use the EK Water Blocks EK-Loop Multi.
 
Do you mean the one with a thread on the whole length and the rubber ring in the radiator? I never saw those on Aliexpress, so you need to turn it on the lathe. Put some paste onto a straight extension to check, if it makes contact with the o-ring. Then you can use this with a regular end piece.

I think you completely misunderstood what this is about. It’s about a tool that we include to tighten the sealing plugs.

@Goldie
We don’t offer this tool separately, and we’ll probably never make it available on its own. Basically, you can easily 3D print something like it yourself or cut it out of a piece of plastic. You can also just put a kitchen towel over the tip of a flathead screwdriver. There are many ways to avoid scratches.
