Anyone got any idea what they are called?, They're round around 10 mm
dia about 15 mm long and have a threaded hole thru them so that say the
end bed frame connects to the side bits that go from the top to the foot
of the bed are held bu a threaded round M 5 or 6 so then they go into
the wood and the bolts screw thru them and then they make a tight fixing
and if anyone's got a Screwfix or Toolstation part number be great!...

Cross dowel bolts and nuts, or just bed bolts, or cot bolts

SF seem to sell the bolts, but not the nuts, TS sell neither, try amazon

Do you mean like a coupling nut or connector:

or a threaded insert:

I remember the old bolt-together, iron bedsteads. They were as rigid
as fuck; no give in them whatsoever. Anyone know what they were made
from?

Cast iron, I think. Extremely heavy. We had one or two in the 60s, and
I remember assisting in their assembly. A "bed key" was required - ie
a ring spanner of about (IIRC) 5/8" or 3/4". The base was made of
spring steel.

Are you sure about this? Most I've seen are in fact kind of abit like
expanding sections of those rawl bolt wall plugs, or they may have a kind of
star configuration to stop them rotating or just be attattached to metal or
wood in some other way.
