Try this. We use by the tons. All kinds of sizes.  They are also
referred to as PEM Inserts, and PEM Nuts Too I think.

Subject: [TN] Unknown Inserts

Hi all,

 

I was wondering if anybody might have a clue where I might find some of
these threaded inserts:

The internal threads are 2-56, and they are stainless steel. 

 

Yardley nor PENN has them. I've been looking and looking but cannot find
anything like them. I know they exist, because I took a picture of them.


 

Any leads would be appreciated. As to why I don't have a part number or
manufacturer, it's a long story.

 

Steve
