Give them a call.  They're very helpful and have what you need.  I've heard them referred to as nutserts, rivet nuts, and even sheet metal molleys.  Everyone seems to make up their own name.

Thank You!
 I was looking hard and had no results till Your reply!
 
I admit looking in my McMaster-Carr supply catalog "#102" and didnt see it.
 
Your McMaster link shows the general outline of what I need (5/16")

I don't count on their catalog any more.  Just too many new things available all the time.  The girls that answer the phone always know their stuff and always help out as long as I'm able to describe what I need.  Faxed them a poor picture of some fasteners I needed some time back and received new ones the next day.  Great service.
