Actually,it's only used for road brifters. I've never heard anyone use the term for flat bar shifters,not even integrated ones. That's why I posted those adjusters.

Are the shifter mounts(where the adjuster threads into) plastic or metal? If plastic,I'd say it's time for new ones. If you don't want to buy new ones,then you could go with the previous poster's recommendation of a co-op/bike kitchen. If they're metal,you might be able to get something like these to work:
