He has the 8mm to 6mm in but might be able to help out.

Don';t forget, you can make hundreds of them yourself with a length of 8mm carbon tube.  Stick in a drill, chop em off at required length.

N.B You may need to ';clean'; the tube out with a 4mm drill depending on the tube itself.

Not sure about 4 to 8mm

But I got 5 to 8mm inserts for Graupner props from this UK seller.

Excellent quick service.  Give em a shout to see if they have 4 to 8mm

or buy some carbon tube like Andy said and make a load yourself

HI
  Reducing 8mm down to 4mm is a big reduction.

I';ve used this nylon 8mm OD, 6mm ID tubing to reduce Graupner 8mm down to 6mm which is what my shafts are and it does work very well, it';s a bit tricky to slice neat bushes off it but once you get the knack they are a nice snug fit.

The above link doesn';t show any 6mm OD, 4mm ID tubing to further reduce down to 4mm but I do have some, I';ve measured it at about 5.97mm OD and seems an ideal fit into the 6MM.

I can';t guarantee this method will work for you but I can send you a 6 inch length of each pipe to see if you can make it work.

If you do want to give it a go PM me your address and I will pop them in the post, don';t worry about any money, won';t cost much to post.

By the way are you usng DT750s?
