oxide steel 1/4 inch long $83 for 10000.

The following is a copy of an email I sent to the list back in Janurary.
Note the prices have gone up a little, but I think the Keystone Screws
from Allied Electronics would be a good one for this aplication (Allied PN
839-9191) Price is about $12.43 per 100.

The drake screws are a 6-32 x 1/4" slotted pan head machine screw fully
threads black oxide.
I looked through several catalogs and finally found one in McMaster Carr.
But the price was shocking
McMaster Carr PN 94340A440
Hard Alloy Stl Pan Head Slotted Machine Screw Black-Oxide, 6-32 Thread,
1/4" Length
In stock at $6.04 Each
I suppose it is the hard alloy that makes these pricey.
You can find a box of 100 zinc plated screws of similar type for about
2.50. Then paint them.
I did find a nice substitute in the Allied Electronics catalog
a phillips flat head screw with a black painted head
6-32" x 1/4"

There may be other sources. If I find any think close to the original
like the McMaster Carr version, but for less money I will post it to the
list.
