This is simply a thickened and squared-off version of NiftyStudioMX's M5 t-nut for 2020 extrusions, I found the original fit great but split apart on the narrow wall when inserting the bolt (printed in PETG) so I just added a couple of mm on each end and squared it off.  This new thickened version is now 9.6mm wide. 

Could be printed in any material I suppose but it should be matched appropriately with the application.  I've used PETG and found surprisingly good strength, I think being contained by the extrusion itself provides some additional support against breaking.  Recommend 0.2mm layer height and 0.4mm walls printed solid (i.e. 100% infill or walls). 

You might see some slight imperfections on the .stl that are a legacy from the original file but these won't have any influence over the print.
