Sherman Taper Bushes

Having removed the sprockets for cleaning, I've located another issue relating to the taper bushes.

The bushes were installed with only one grub screw in each side and this was installed in the release hole rather than either of the locking holes.

Can anyone confirm the size of grub screw needed as replacements as they appear to be an imperial size (1/4" ?)

I think the Tiger bushes may be the same size (1008-15).

All the models use the same taper lock bush. The part number is 1008-15.
The screws are 1/4" whitworth, 1/2" long, but they are a bit odd because the hex key size is 3mm, I dont know why.

Thanks for the dimensions.

I've hopefully sourced some via an Ebay store.
