They only do 3/4" long, but may be worth while sending them an email.

whats the equivalent metric size as these seem to available in longer lengths

im looking at about 45mm maybe a little bit less could be acceptable. i guess that would be 1 3/4 inches?

they are for holding the radiator and fans + shroud to the roof of my case, i have the phobya ones and they are about ok, just not countersunk

the prices of those security screws are insane btw.

i may have a rethink and see if i can do this another way, but i dont think i can
