@Mark A most of the cap iron screws will be a standard length, if you can work out the thread and pitch (could be either 1/4"or 5/16") Mcmaster may have something suitable LINK
or if you go down the re-threading route then have a search for "cheese head screws" on e-bay, you just need to make sure the head diameter is large enough.
