UNF ..... BSF!!!! It never even occurred to me to think that British and US
would differ here.

Sorta begins to give a sense for the value of metric.  Live and learn.

Since we didn't seem to be getting anywhere, I went to my spare set of
seats which have never (to my knowledge) been taken apart, and removed
one of what I think are the screws under discussion.

It measures as follows:-

head.....flat head, slotted, 100 degree underneath
length.....2.46"...call it 2 1/2"
diameter.....0.246"...call it 1/4"
thread.....fully threaded 26 tpi

This screw equates to 1/4 British Standard Fine


Hope this helps
