Default hidde shelf fixing

Anybody know where to buy those metal "keyhole" pieces that can be
fixed to the wall side of a shelf.
When installed, they permit a shelf to slide onto and be
supported by a screw head protruding slightly from the wall surface.
I'm not sure what the proper name is for these devices but hopefully
you
have the picture.
Any help in locating a supplier would be appreciated.

And what are the shelves going to be used for?

The link I posted are nice supports as you fit the shelving into the slot
push bottom piece up to clamp the shelf and tighten it with an allen key.

The grip is adjustable for various thickness of shelves.

Drill holes in the wall, fix lengths of steel studding with resin
adhesive, slide on the shelf which has corresponding holes to take the
studding.

Nope but they compliment the shelf and dont protrude that much.
