I know what I'm looking for, but I don't know what it's called (DIY)

I have cut a round hole in a garden table for an umbrella. I want to finish it off by putting something like this (photo below) in the hole to give it a bit more strength and make it look a bit nicer. These are the same thing one might use to put up shower curtain rail or a clothes rail inside a wardrobe, but if I search for either of those what I find is quite small with a hole half the size I need for my large umbrella. The hole I have cut is 8cm in diameter. I've been searching for "circular bracket". Does anyone know if there's a technical name for one of these things? Thanks.

Thanks @Treeface but that's not what I'm looking for. I want something metal that I can screw into the table, something that looks exactly like the photo I attached but with a bigger hole. Thanks anyway.

Technically known as a flange plate but you might find something to suit under post or handrail base plate listings.

Maybe something scaffolding related, or like a metal plate that goes into the wall to hold a banister in place. Those should be wider if you manage to find any.

I just need to find the goldilocks size.

Wild edges is spot on, you want an 80mm flange plate. Commercial plumbers will have this, they have different sizes, threads and fixings:

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but it would have been better to check availability of the doobry before cutting the hole.

8cm seems a very wide hole for an umbrella

Thanks Captain Hindsight. I wish I had your powers.
