Ahhhh, I was wondering why you were looking at that worst website :)
What size do you need ?
Yellow pages, contact your nearest fastener wholesaler & ask?

i could replace it but it would cost a bit more , but worth if it - if i can find a tube .Quote:

Could always buy a bit of tube and a UNF tap and do it yourself? Something with an ID of abt 11.4 mm (0.4459")

Depending on the application, maybe a rivnut would serve your purpose, they provide an internally threaded hole and riveting onto sheet metal.
Good idea, Ive been looking at various, inserts but some of the measurements are not quite there and would prob mean using some sort of epoxy or filler.Quote:

Try searching for pipe coupling rather than tube.
