You haven't said what size you need, but if they are 2mm then try here  Linky  That seller also does other sizes as well.

 COuldnt really answer that one to be honest it was bought out a vape shop so not much info that i can google  only thing i can do is take pics but at that it wont really help.

They will be M1.6, M2 or M2.5 (less likely.) so 1.6 mm, 2 mm or 2.5 mm diameter and don't include the head measuring the length required. I get mine off eBay, A4 stainless steel are the best then A2 stainless steel or just stainless steel, don't use anything else

millsy102 A quick 2 mins google seems to bring up 3mm in size. That same site I linked to earlier has them ad well HERE

Perhaps get M2 (2mm) and M3 (3mm) They are always useful things to have. Suggest getting them in 3mm length.

I presume that you want these for attaching the coil??  These are grub screw type, there is nowhere to trap the wire under  

ETA: I've just noticed that the posts have holes in them, so the above is immaterial.

Heres another link, maybe no use, but us in clock and watch swear by them for quality

Totally going off topic, but it's about screw threads. Is it possible to change a BSP tapered thread to a parallel thread? I need to change the tapered thread on a 1/2" nipple so that a nut can be threaded on. I'm using 304 stainless fittings, and want to fit the nipple to a tank, with a nut either side to clamp, but still screw on a 90 bend on the inside. So is it just a matter of getting a 1/2" BSP die and re-cutting the threads further up the nipple?
