A nut held in place

[D2Cat]

I removed the radiator out of my 730 Case tractor. It's a 1966 model and built like it's suppose to last. I had to remove the front screens, which come off easily because they're made to so access to the oil bath air filter is convenient. I had to remove the side panels and upper cover over the radiator and it was a challenge.

I need some of these nut gizzmos to go in the square holes so I can get the 1/4" bolts back in to something where I can't reach to put a lock washer and nut.

So what are these things called?

In my business they are cabinet nuts. We go through hundreds of them.

Do a search for cabinet or cage nuts.

It may be called a clip on nut or a U nut. They come in different sizes.

Heard them called nut clips, cage nuts, & captive nuts.

Mc Master-Carr has them, Captive nuts.
