Looking for special Hex Nut


See nut in picture - http://ift.tt/15zzaWx This is from a wheelchair frame. The other nut fell off and was lost. Wheelchair distributor will only sell entire new frame for $300 (insane!). I have gone to Lowes, Home Depot, Ace (which had a huge specialty fastener assortment) and no luck finding anything. Looking online, but not much luck. Assuming it is in imperial units, and is either 5/8" or 9/16". No problem finding that, but it has a much finer thread pitch - maybe 24-32, and can't seem to find that combination. Is there any way to tell if it is metric units? Any help in sourcing a replacement would be awesome!


Update - Here is where the part fits - http://ift.tt/1poxt6Z My mistake I don't think an axle runs through it.
