I have exactly the same issue as you did, I am looking to replace at least one of the female parts of this set as it shattered into pieces. Did you have any luck finding or making a replacement?

I was able to take a big washer and drill the holes for screws then JB weld it to the threaded two inch sleeve. No way I could find the replacement piece because the manufacturer went out of business in China. Hope this helps

Try Rockler's website for woodworkers. i believe they have something close. You might try Carr McMaster as well because they seem to carry most everything fasteners.

McMaster Carr has what you're looking for under screw mount nuts.

I know this is an old thread, but I had the same problem. Brittle "pot metal" insert that shattered into a gazillion pieces. Looked for months for a replacement. Finally found one on Amazon, shipped from china, that is so perfect that I don't even have to replace the threaded portion. Details below. Cheers
