I know it's here somewhere . Does anyone know the size of the thread for the side plate to brace/frame screws on a 114H?

As you can see in the photo some of the threads are worn and these screws are actually bent. I'm trying to find a source for replacements out of SS. Just like the 5-40 size on the jigmaster/112h. Only I'm having some trouble finding a 8-40 SS screw anywhere. Anyone know?
   Alan, I may take you up on those screws. That's if I can't find them in SS. Thanks so much.
Bob

The ones we are getting over here are stainless.The chromed brass phased out about a year ago.

The 5-40's & 8-40's I've been getting are s/s. Since they came out with the China H2 & L reels they have been s/s from China       Rudy

Thanks guys. The only ones I've seen are the chrome over brass. I'm going to place an order for them this week. Thanks again.
