You know, the circular piece of plastic in the centre of garden tables where you put the umbrella? Just looked and our has broken and is on floor, and can't just put umbrella pole in as it's a glass table. Need to get a new one but does it have a special name??

What's wrong with just an open hole?
What you need is a "grommet" which protects the glass from the (presumably steel) pole. The original doesn't sound very durable, but if you take the remains to an electrical wholesaler they will fix you up with something that will probably last.
