Are you shure you have a standard TRS then ? I've got some Neutriks
here, dimensions are perfectly OK. But I prefer Amphenols.

There is a TRS-like connector sometimes called a 'GPO jack', the
one used in manual telephone exchanges and in pro audio before
bantams became the norm. It has a smaller diameter tip and the
position of the ring is different as well. Don't know if Neutrik
makes them, they are kind of rare these days.
