Default Need 4-48 screw

I'd like to get a hold of one 4-48 screw to test to see if it
fits into the business (test contact) end of a Federal test
indicator I have. If it fits I will need one or 2 screws at
least 1/2" long, any head or no head, but just to test any 4-48
thread should do. Tough to measure just what it is, but it's not
4-40 or any M3 I tried. Any help appreciated

4-48 is a standard thread. May not find it in every hardware store,
but any fastener supplier or mail order source should stock it.
What's the problem?

If you can't find a screw locally, you can probably find a tap in that
size.
