Who knows a good European Source for these captive nuts?

[Joost]

I am making my own chassis and want to get some of these captive nuts as seen on tubedepot.com. These don't require me to make a square hole, as I would need for caged nuts.

Where can I find these in the EU?

If you have other suggestions of captive nuts that don't need any additional tools, I am open to suggestions. Here is the tube depot captive nut that requires an 8mm hole:

Also try searching for PEM nuts. Pete.

or searching clip nuts or cage nuts. There are many that will work well for mounting an amp.

If you absolutely cannot find any where you are, let me know and I will order and then mail them to you.

Thanks for all the replies and the kind offer from hired hand. I have found some. BTW, the caged nuts were very easy to find, but it would be very hard to make the proper square hole without any tools other than a drill, so I found the round captive nuts that you can bang in there with a hammer

So what did you choose finally? I'm in the same boat

I managed to get some from tubedepot for cheap through a friend. Really the easiest installation. The others in the link either required a square hole or didn't fit in sheet metal beyond 2.2 mm (mine is 3 mm)

OK thanks,

looks like they ship international
