Joe,
  Which reels will these fit in our modern builds?  Are they made to the correct length that we need or do we need to shave em down?
Thanks,
Dom

Dom: I will cut them to length for reels that take the 6-40 bridge screw. That is the one that is partially threaded for the clutch. I would say they would fit Penn reels in the class of 500s. I made them for my conversion reels and they are no field down full thread screws that were altered. I wanted to match the socket head screws that all conversion plates come with.

Guys I feel I have to clarify shipping. It's a small package in most cases so shipping in the US is minimal, I am charging a low price as is so please understand about charging postage.

Oh, Allen wrench head screws. I was trying to figure out how to set a socket into the screw area. Thank you for clarifying.
