Square cage nut

Where does one go to get the square cage nuts for a dash surround or side panels off of a big ten or simplicity equivalent? Need quite a few. Thanks in advance.

My local ACE Hardware carries them in their loose hardware section. Be prepared to pay $1-2+ each. They are sold in the screw sizes EG 5/16 and 1/4-20. They are also sized for the gauge of steel that they mount in. Wayne

I got mine from McMaster as well. Much cheaper, only thing is you need to buy a larger number, I think it was 25 per package. And watch the sizes, they are, like Wayne said, made for different thicknesses of sheet metal as well as thread size. Mine fell between two ranges for my Yeomans, so I bought for the next thicker size and squeezed them tighter, it worked well. Steve
