You won't find any, as it's marketing twaddle. Along with plastic-bodied plugs being better because of their "lower capacitance". If you crunch the numbers, this may well be true, bit only if you're putting RF of several hundred MHz through them!
Personally, I always use Neutriks like these: https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/rca-connectors/4572947/
Good quality and have a cable clamp that actually works.
Engineers: fixing problems you didn't know you had in ways you don't understand.
I've measured the capacitance of several brands of RCA phono plugs, and regardless of construction they all measure around 5pF.
Fans of the 'bullet' plugs talk an awful lot of twaddle (IMO) about eddy currents in metal-bodied plugs, yet fail to comment on the compromise in shielding and the increase in contact resistance (Hertzian constriction resistance) due to reduced contact area of the bullet/finger with the outer part of the phono socket with which it mates.

these have replaced my kle plugs, all metal construction and at £14 for 4 you cant go wrong

What are those plugs and where might I find them?

I'm Paul.
Have a look on EvilBay and search for locking Phono plugs.
IIRC they are only suitable for use on realy thick cable like the 60pf Van Damme stuff

Thanks! I’ll try them out
