What is the size of the screws that goes in brass flanges?
When the brass plate breaks the screw does not fit the replacement plate, from Schaff.
The screw that  is supplied with the new plate is too long, and the round head isn't right.
What tap do I need?
I seem to have trouble trying to figure out the size.
