I would go bike your local bike shop. Very low cost item. That way you will get both the proper screw thingy, but in the right length too!

I’d like to answer your question with a question. Has America reached the point that we forget the small businessman/women? I see soooo many questions similar to this one on this site. Where can I buy this part or that part for my bicycle? Has America gotten to the point we forget that originally bicycles were almost exclusively sold at bicycle shops?
It’s like asking, “Where can I buy an air filter for my car?” At an auto parts store! Naturally, discount stores sell such items too. But discount stores don’t have the trained personnel to insure you are getting the correct part for your car or bicycle.
Recently, I was in a discount store & a man was looking for training wheels that would fit a bike with 20″ wheels. The “associate” looked at him & said, “No such thing made.” As soon as the “associate” left the scene I tracked down the man & gave him the name of 3 bike shops.
When it gets to the point of everything bicycle related being sold over the Internet or discount stores, who will be around to repair that bike when it fails? All the bike shops will be closed because no one supported their local neighborhood businesses. Sorry to ramble. I think America has lost touch with reality.
you can also take the bolt to Home depot and find the same bolt and the same length…
I personally would prefer and do go to a chain bike store(only bikes) but still and chain as they at least have over 15 employees and can be held accountable for there actions, all the local single store bike store are really bad in my area….I personally Always prefer to go to chain, and i wish government regulated very small Business as well.
