The ones that I am thinking of are usually 1/4″ UNF threads. They are used with captive nuts and the lead in to the thread is necked down to a plain cylindrical form for maybe a 1/4″ long. I have used the last of my stock in the latest car restoration.

They would be easier to find if I knew the correct name for them!

Regards,

Andrew.
