Neck screws with Allen instead of Philips?

Like the title says.

Any sources or such?

Ebay has them, but they require inserts.

So,they’re not wood screws with Allen heads, but rather machine screws with Allen heads that would use inserts, correct?

I found these on Amazon, but finding M8 x 1.75 is turning out to be a challenge.

I would set the mounting surface down into the body about 5/16”.

If anyone finds a link, I’d appreciate a share to that link.

If you are searching for 1.75, that would indeed be a problem. 1.25 is the standard M8 thread spacing. 1.75 is standard for M12.

Edit: Never mind. I have never seen self tapping screws such as the ones linked to by the Spudster. They do not give a "pitch" description. Interesting.

He will be meaning 1.75" for the length of the screw, not metric thread spacing.
