YOU MAY ALSO USE A FILLISTER HEAD STEEL OR BRASS SLOTTED 0-80 TO CUT TO LENGTH AND APPLY A SLEEVE IF OTHER HEADS NOT AVAILABLE.

All Mantua siderod screws were brass hexhead with a shoulder for the thickness of siderods being fastened and had 0-80 screw threads to attach it to the wheel. Slotted steel screws may be used if the head and shoulder are the correct size and length with the 0-80 screw threads. I have used both.
You can also use an 0-80 SLOTTED PAN HEAD SCREW WITH A FULL SCREW THREAD BODY AND CUT A BRASS TUBE SLEEVE THE RIGHT LENGTH FOR THE SIDEROD THICKNESS TO BEAR ON, WITH A LITTLE CLEARANCE SPACE UNDER THE HEAD OF COURSE.

THIS APPLIES TO ALL THE MANTUA I EVER HANDLED EXCEPT FOR THE MAIN ROD/ECCENTRIC CRANK SCREW... THERE WERE SEVERAL VARITIES ON THAT DEPENDING ON THE SPACER AND E. CRANK DESIGN. MOST OF THEM CAN BE DONE WITH AN 0-80 FULL THREAD BODY LONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE E. CRANK, ROD SPACER AND SIDEROD BEARING SLEEVE.

Hoping you success...

I get different small screws from Micro Fasteners-?
I'm not sure of the sizes, but if anyone here can fill you in I'm sure they would have them.? They don't offer small quantities, but the prices aren't bad?
