Anyone have any or know where I can buy them, all I can find is packs of 10.
Managed to grind the back of mine down and it no longer locks properly :doh:

I am guessing these will be expensive in singles. £13.20 each in packs of 10.
Do you not have lathe.

My guess is ABS 3D printed nut will be strong enough. But some of the guys in here work with all sorts of 3D filament so they might know better.

Embed nuts in the 3D print

Markforged Mechanical Features Most 3D printing plastics are not strong enough to print threads. Their yield strength is significantly lower than that of metals. Even fibre reinforcements do not protect against high wear. Precision and high bonding strength can only be guaranteed by metal...

Does the required nut screw directly onto the spindle of a machine? If so, what machine?

Describing the requirement as "3M retainer nuts" is too vague for us to understand what you are looking for.

The pack-of-ten 3M ones are all imperial thread, meaning the Wolfcraft one above, which would be M14 thread, for a standard grinder, might not fit.

Those three words are the names of manufacturers, not the description of the tool the disk is attached to.

You know what you want because you have it in front of you, looking at it. We can only guess at what you want. And if we guess, we may guess wrong and mislead you in your purchase. We do not want to do that, so please help us to help you by giving full information.

This is a pure guess, but it looks like those disks go onto a standard 5" angle grinder. Hence, the Wolfcraft item above would fit.

It is difficult to find the nuts for sale without the rubber pad. This is about the cheapest I could find - keep the nut and throw the pad away:
