They of the kind you find on backpacks, just smaller. They are made of
hard plastic. Nearly every combination of materials will be abrasive if
rubed hard enough. The advantage of plastic over metal for our purpose
is, that plastic wont have sharp edges.

I don´t know the exact English term for them, they are used in
electronics to isolate wires. In Germany we call them
"Schrumpfschlauch". The tubes diameter will shrink if exposed to heat,
following the shape of the interior part, this change is permanet.
You will find them in electronic shops.
