Anyone know what these are called?

They're considered "inserts" for brass tubing, the tubing I need is 5/32" I.D., for modeling purposes. Instead of buying a kit of these and minimal tubing lengths, I'm trying to source these directly somewhere. They take a standard M2 sized screw.

Thought maybe some of you machinist guys could figure it out, before I make a trip to fastenal or york bolt.

Looks similar to a nutsert but just different enough to probably not be it

Looks like a T-nut for wood working.

In that application you would drill a hole in a piece of wood and insert the nut from behind with the flange helping to keep it from pulling through.


Try some of the wood working places like Rockler or Lee-Valley or Wood Craft.

Here is a version
