Threaded inserts

Post image

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to figure out what a part is called and where I can order it. It's a type of metal threaded insert meant to be glued into a blank so it can screw on to a threaded metal rod. I'm trying to make an unscrewable handle like in the photo.

Does anyone know what these are called and where I could buy some?
