What's a small flanged tank connector called?

I've been here before but I can't remember what I eventually found that was exactly what I wanted (but not called a tank connector).



I need some 'flanged tank connectors' but much smaller than is found by simply searching for 'flanged tank connectors'. I want to connect something like 10mm tube to a flat plate so that there is no projection at all the side away from the connection. A flanged tank connector provides exactly what I want.



I seem to remember asking here about it a year or more ago, and I found what I wanted then, but I can't remember what it turned out to be called. I think it's some sort of furniture fitting or similar.



Any ideas anyone to help out my aging brain?


After much weeping, wailing, gnashing of teeth and searching I have found something close to what I want:-

However I want something with more than three fixing holes if possible, so does anyone have any alternative names for such things?

Does 'spiggot' in the search terms get you any closer?

Not sure if it is exactly what you want but curtain pole holders may serve

e.g.

pole bracket or curtain pole bracket etc. Not specifically for connecting to anything to make a gas or fluid type connection tho
