tee nuts are made to pull up into wood and not need a wrench on the backside to hold the nut from spinning[Edited on June 5, 2009 at 4:49 PM. Reason : post a picture of what you've got]

We also used to call T-nuts blind nuts. Not what OP is talkin' about, I'm sure.
6/5/2009 4:50:41 PM
yeah, i've heard em called blind nuts too

hooksaw
6/5/2009 4:52:58 PM
from the looks of it i'm guessing this type of nut is rare and probably specifically made for certain items. but yeah t-nut/blind nut is not it.

I wonder if this is one of those things you'll randomly find in the "hard to find" furniture/nuts/bolts section at Lowe's.Worth a shot anyway.

Oh my fucking sweet Jesus. That would definitely fall into the fastening knob category. A goddamn THREADED KNOB.I used to order them by the hundreds when I worked for Flanders/CSC. But ours had either FOUR or SIX tits on them. I even had whole batches custom drilled and threaded with ACME threads.Next time, know what you're asking for.[Edited on June 5, 2009 at 8:36 PM.
