Quadrature shaft encoder source

I have seen in a couple threads that teams have used a specific Quadrature encoder for various projects. The one I can't seem to find is usually red, about the same size as a standard rotary pot but has four pins coming out of the back.
What I would like to know is where I can purchase these. I have searched several sites including: McMaster, SparkFun, All Electronics and Jameco with no results. I don't mind using a different encoder, I just like the size and configuration of that one. If you would recommend a different encoder for FRC, please advise on that as well.
