Screw/Bolt needed, like Mark's fastener don't know the name

Post by Mike E »

Seeing the T and Riv Nuts reminded me I want a specific screw or bolt to use with them. The head is something like a thumbscrew but instead of the usual shape a semicircle with the flat part/diameter attached to the end of the bolt. In that way the rounded portion precludes any lines from snagging when the bolt is tightened all the way down.

The reason for this is to provide a way to quickly and easily mount/dismount lexan storm shutters over the larger cabin windows and until I can replace them with some of New Found Metals versions.

TIA

Thanks, looks like Knurled or Rosette are my best choices
