Topic : Screws for self jamming cleats

I have a couple of old small tufnol self jamming cleats which I would like to keep on an old boat but the screws are missing. There are no screws for the base - just reliant on the screws on the pivot.  They are stainless dome headed and are 30mm (1 and 1/4") long and the shoulder is plain and 13mm (1/2") long and 4mm (3/16") wide.  Can anyone help?

Garry,

Are they self taping and brass or SS?

A chandler local to me has loads of screws very similar to how you describe. Can send you some if needed.

Sounds like 1 - 1/4" no 8 Round Heads to me there must be an Old fashioned iron monger somewhere?

With a washer of course that will make the shoulder the correct width.
