What I need is rubber 1/4" tubing with no holes (a long cylinder).

Any ideas where to get a solid 1/4" round rubber tubular gasket about 2
or 3 feet long?
It appears you wanr solid rubber spline or backing rod, not tubing -
as tubing, by definition, is hollow and open at both ends.

I believe backer rod is what you are looking for - it is availavle in
open cell, closed cell, soft and firm, among other variants. Check the
Borg.
