It was listed as a special head screw because it is a 10-32 with a #8 head.

Mine have unscrewed themselves, even after I used some dished star lockwashers. I have thought of adjusting the focus, counting the turns to unscrew, then putting them back in with some blue loctite on them. Or is there a better way to do it? The motor doesn't vibrate badly.

30-31s are shorter, but thread size is the same.
