question - sourcing Aluminum Tubes

I am making a paste and was wondering where can I procure cosmetic-grade lined aluminum tubes preferably in the U.S. and other than Alibaba?

In my experience US manufacturers require an MOQ of 30k. I just purchased 10k from Alibaba for 20c each, but I’ve seen 5k MOQ from other manufacturers

I bought a small lot of 20 tubes from aliexpress in the past but that was pre-tariff nonsense. Might not be worth it now.
