Hi. Does anyone know what this specific kind of waistband adjuster is called, or where to get them from?

I'm not talking about the regular tuxedo kind.

This one has an exposed metal track, and small locking slider.

I googled the guess: "ratchet waistband adjuster". Plastic ones seem to be common on casual wear. These are similar:

The one you linked to is almost like one side of a zipper.

Thanks for the links. The top one looks the most similar.

It looks like some manufacturers still use these adjusters:
