That may be what they call them now for posh folks, but when I fitted the first one 40 odd years ago they were called threshers, when I went to Whewells, he immediately knew what I wanted, when I went to JAS Timber he knew what I wanted.
Lots of things have changed over the years, dust bin chaps are now called Refuse Disposal Officers, but they still empty dustbins, only they now call them wheely bins.
