That's about 40 cm. I don't know if anyone is making - or ever did - something that long. Even the Army tubular ice pitons were only about 10 in. long IIRC.

What on earth are you using these for?
Salewa and the old Chouinards were pretty long.
You could also use EMT conduit cut to whatever length you wish.
The original Lowe Alpine Snargs weren't much more than that.Conduit was popular in Canada during the 80's and 90's.
