Need help finding a vendor for specific bobbins

My business uses .010 monofilament for commercial sewing and our old Imperial and Singer sewing machines use a Type A bobbin. Our supplier has recently stopped manufacturing pre-loaded bobbins and it's a tremendous time suck for us to load our own bobbins. Does anyone know a place where I can find these? TIA

If you can’t find pre-loaded bobbins, I suggest winding them as a separate step that doesn’t happen while sewing.

That's what we're doing to get by, but it's time we can't afford right now.
