As long as you get right diameter pole, you can cut the pole to size with a junior hacksaw. Most replacemnet poles are longer than they need to be to allow for using with different tents.
i would think the diameter you need is the pole itself not the metal ferrule.
Take the pole to the shop and compare it to be sure if the right size .
Put masking tape around it to stop spilntering and cut with a junior hacksaw, rub with sandpaper to remove and sharp bits. thread elastic through and tie off .
A single section is only about £2-£3 . A pack of elastic is about £5 , but that would restring several complete pole lengths, and always handy to have as spare for future repairs . Also worth getting another spare section , and cutting to size in readiness if ever needed to repair on site.
