I need a part that looks like this: it consists of an "eye"-bolt with a nut and washer which allows this part to be attached to a rod/tube of the right diameter.

These "bolts" are commonly used for attaching bicycle fenders; the picture is from a bike company. However, I want to know if these are available in arbitrary sizes, i.e. multiple combinations of:

  1. Shank length and thread pitch
  2. 'Head' size and hole dia

etc

Mystery nut

    Try searching for "stay binder".

  • Please avoid putting a question in the subject that also isn't in the body. Your subject is "what's the name" and your body is more of a "where do I find it" feel.

  • Well that went ususually sideways. I already knew these things are used for fenders. What I'm looking for is a non-bicycle source - for connecting stuff of other sizes for a DIY project.

They appear to be called, fender eyelet bolts, eyelet bolts, or bicycle fender bolts. There is a link I found for Fender Eyelet Bolts, 5mm here.

For non-US readers of this question: In some parts of the world these are called "mudguard bolts"

Check out McMaster-Carr Supply they are online and would be a good place to start. Start out with latch or swing bolts. Or Reid Tool Supply

  • The question was about the name of the item. This doesn't really answer the question, just gives advice on how to search somewhere else for it.

  • Already spoke to someone at McMaster-Carr - they don't have anything like this and don't know what this is called.
