Threaded bit for table lamp - lacking Google-fu.

[Chris French]

We have a table lamp, hollow ceramic base, the lamp holder has a female threaded base, with a male threaded bit that was held in place with a nut into the top of the ceramic base..

The threaded bit has broken. A simple fix, but I can't seem to find the bit to buy, threaded lampholders yes, but not the bit that it screws onto. My normal place for such bit locally, a independent hardware store doesn't have them.. I seem to be lacking the necessary Google-fu to find one online. Even ebay.

Can any one point me to a supplier

lamp nipple?

[Chris Hogg]

Pillar nipple??

or except that they're supposedly for wooden lamps,

or one of these stuck on with araldite?

Failing those, all sorts here

It's called a base plate for threaded lampholder.

I ebayed lamp holder bits snd came up with this:

Maybe not quite what you want but a scroll through listings from there on ebay may find it.
