1.3 mm teflon strips ?

I bought a large chunk of it and cut it myself but I'm not sure that you could use it for inlay as normal glues don't adhere to it. I use it to make forms to glue up soundhole rosettes as well as spacers to put in the binding channel while gluing purfling. You can buy it from any industrial supply like McMaster Carr, Grainger, Fastenal etc.
 
Call Joann at Rescue Pearl.

Or switch to ZipFlex and do purfling and binding at the same time and save a lot of labor.
 
I like using 1.1 mm purfling shell (as well as 1.3 and 1.6) so I make my own filler strips. There are multiple online suppliers who sell sheets of various thicknesses of teflon. It can be easily sawn with a laminate blade when fixed to a plywood board with spray adhesive.
