You might have more luck searching for sleeve valve, If you're after what I think you can find them lots of places:

All quite expensive though with not a lot to choose between them.

Here you go. It's often called a sleeve valve in the UK.

EDIT: Blast, beaten to it.

EDIT 2: Heck, if I'm going to have a post here, I might as well say that I've used these myself, with good results.
