For light duty, it's possible to make a serviceable T-bolt from a carriage bolt; just grind the head to fit the T-slot.

Thanks Marv, excellent reminder for the carriage bolt mod. I have made a few of them in the past.
Douglas, I was on the LMS site this morning and did a search on T-Slot-Nut and found the 7/16 and quite a few other sizes.

The also list a 7/16 slot cleaner which is easy to make and cleans out all the swarf not just the steel!
Cheers, JR
I was about to order 4 9/16” slot nuts from MacMaster, I think about 12bucks,
nowhere on their website did it say how much shipping was, I had to call them!
Turns out they wanted $6 to mail, so I declined. Too much for a little shipping
envelope. Thanks douglas

Here’s what I ended up ordering.
Thanks. Douglas
If you are using 3/8-16 bolts then LMS has 1/2" T-Slot-Nuts that may work ok in your 9/16 slots.
Only $1.49 each and they usually ship small orders by mail. I have had shipping as low as $3.00
from them on a small order.

I plugged in qty 4 in LMS and their lowest was 1st class mail $4.45. Thanks, douglas
Well that is unfortunate. If they are large enough so they don't rotate in the slot you
could use a washer on each one that would be large enough not to pull thru the slot?
I suppose another quick fix would be to solder the washer to the "nut" placing the washer
above the nut? Light duty but might work in a pinch.
