Tink n stick do some nice bits. We like to have a selection of fidget/sensory bits so they can choose what works in the moment.

For calming, the gel drop/ooze tube and oils drop timers are nice, especially the ones with a couple of colours of oil. DS also has a light projector which makes interesting patterns on the ceiling.

We have a couple which are interlocking rings, and some bike chain with coloured rubber rings which slide nicely round and round. No idea what either are called, I usually just search for sensory fidget toys on Amazon and see what pops up.

Stress balls, especially the ones filled with gel or waterbeads are well liked, but in our experience tend to pop easily and make quite a mess. We do like waterbeads on thier own though.

We do have fidget spinners and fidget cubes, but since the big crazed these are now toys rather than calming tools.

Blue Tack! A ball of blue tack seems to work wonders.

Found the fidget cube quite useful as it can be used with one hand (so can be used when writing or drawing). The Tangle is great when both hands are free.
