I have a few of these that got ripped out of a fender I am working on. It would be a easy repair if I could find these nuts that were spot welded in from the factory. The back side is rectangle shape and it goes through a square hole in the fender. Any idea where I can find replacements, and what these are called? Thanks

They are called "weld nuts" ... although I can't imagine why !!!

Thanks for the replies. I did search for "weld nuts" before I posted here. Unfortunately, nothing i found resembled what I need to replace. What I am looking for is something very close to what the factory uses. I checked McMaster, nothing close.

I did a Google search - tried rectangular, square, flanged, etc as descriptions - and found some that would work, but they're not exactly the same.
Kind of a surprise - I'd expect them to be easier to find.

As already mentioned, making them from some bar stock may be the solution if you want them correct.
I wouldn't use hardened metal for them, too aggravating for that purpose.
I wonder if a call or email to AMD would reveal a supplier ?

I needed some and got them off a old vertical support like this https://www.ebay.com/itm/364921705345

Y'know, they look VERY easy to make !!! Especially considering you'll only see the back side.

We call those clinch nuts , where I work. They are actually pressed into the metal with a piercing die punch set. But I found these looking for a supplier . .
