Are not the Tinnerman nuts the same as the ones used for racks with 
large holes that are not tapped? I use cage nuts for those. I had to 
order about 300 of them to meet minimum order So far have used most of 
them too!

My stereo is in a 6.5' pdp11 rack.

Try here for Tinnermans:

You might be looking for a cage nut though:
