yep most bolt shops will have some."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

thanks!
only 1 stocks the 10mm ones, now just hoping that they ship out of uk...
and also just to double check,
A2 Socket (Grub) Screws
M2 * 10 £ 5.51
my pedals use a 2mm allen key to screw in n out so this above mentioned should be what i need?
not that great with these stuff...

used to use those, pure crap...
long or short...
after i switched to the grub screws, they were ok, but i lost quite a few already because i cannot screw them too deep if not i won't get proper grip, so when its not too deep in it tends to drop off/ come loose....
so grub screws are definitely the best way for these, but the stock ones are only 8mm so i'm hoping to get longer ones so i can screw it deeper but still get the grip i want.
that's why i'm looking for grub screws 10mm upwards...0 -
the problem with the grub screws is they do not bottom out as the holes seem to be threaded the whole way through.

spent a fair bit on them, would like to try and make it work, and yes they are threaded the whole way, but i think if it was a tad longer also with some locktite, it should be fine, just to check are these what i would need if i wanted to get em?

m2 should be the size of the allen key i use (size)
10 should be for how long it is right?
just not sure what the A2 means...0 -
M2 is the thread size not the allen key size. measure the diameter of the current thread."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

i have a feeling that the thread is 4X0.7mm But i could be wrong. i do not have any to measure so that you will need to do/get done."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

from wikipedia;
Metric hex wrench sizes are sometimes referred to using the designation "M" followed by the size in millimeters of the tool or socket, e.g. "M6", although this may be confused with the standard use of "M6" which refers to the threads of a metric screw or bolt.0 -
And? allen key size has no bearing on thread size. more so with set screws (grub screws) Like i said get the threads measuredzephyr11 wrote:from wikipedia;
