I can get equivalent size 10-24 in UNC in A2 Stainless. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/A2-Stainl...0/291640830602 Same major diameter, same pitch although 60degs thread rather than BSW 55degs. Any doubt get a tap. Any reason why a standard countersink can't be used? Yes, I'd seen those but I need to match the brass originals.


Might be worth dropping these folk a line if you've not already
