Default AN509 screws?

Am I missing something? I am trying to replace all my RV6 fuel tank screwed with new AN509 cad plated screws and I can?t find 1/2in full thread screws on ACS... what give?

It might just be late and I should go to bed... ugh

That's because an AN509 screw at 1/2 inch length has a 3/32 grip range...

The specification is here... http://everyspec.com/MS-Specs/MS2/MS...MS24694C_8056/
