SMALL NEEDLE BEARING THRUST WASHERS?
They are flat like flat washers, except they have tiny roller bearings radial around the ring.
They don't have to fit the work perfectly
They would keep the metal between the flat washer and the nutsert from galling when using stainless steel nutserts.
I've decided to go (as usual :) ) with Mr. Wizard's advice. That way I can use all SAE fine-thread nutserts that perhaps (?) are best purchased at McMaster Carr? Or is there an even better source for specialty nutserts for odd applications?
