Where can I find torque wrench bits?

I have an older model Anschutz torque wrench and am looking for replacement bits in different sizes. It would be nice to have sizes 2.5, 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0mm heads as a lot of screws are coming in different sizes lately. The Gehmann model comes with all of these, but I don't want to replace a perfectly good wrench now. The diameter of the bit where it fastens into the wrench is 8.0mm hex. Does anyone know where I can buy some of these parts?
Many thanks!

A place that sell industrial equipment would be a good start, a heavy duty hardware store.
If it sell $70 electric drill kits, don't bother.
If it sell $70 single drill bits, try there.

Try Reid Supply Company, McMaster Carr, or Grainger for industrial supplies. I think Reid has no minimum order requirement.

Only if you want it to break when used!

Personally I think the bad rumors about their power tools are exaggerated, but even so its a safe bet that simple bits for a torque wrench from there should be fine. I have plenty of their hand tools, drill bits, etc. with no problems. Just haven't bought any of their power tools.
