FFXIV Magitek Repair Materials are not sold by any vendor — you craft them yourself from level 50 master recipes available to all eight crafting jobs. Their only use is repairing and maintaining the components of Free Company airships and submersibles, which lose condition as they explore. You need the materials in your own inventory to carry out those repairs.
What Magitek Repair Materials are used for
Magitek Repair Materials are described in-game as various materials used in the repair and maintenance of large-hulled airships and submersibles. Airship and submersible components lose condition with each exploration, in the same way gear does for players. To repair them, the materials must be in your inventory, and the higher the tier of the component, the more materials you need. Components do not have to be repaired until their condition reaches 0%.
How to get Magitek Repair Materials
You cannot buy them. The Eorzea Database lists Magitek Repair Materials as not available for purchase, and they sell for 10 gil. Instead, you craft them from master recipes unlocked at level 50 on every crafting job:

- Goldsmith — Master Goldsmith I
