I have a Perrin and Rowe bridge faucet without diverter, model U.4791. I didn't buy it, it came with the house, but it is now mine to take care of. I've had a fair amount of trouble with the set screw and o-rings that secure the spout. I have a large set of o-rings, including the ones that fit, so that part is no biggie. But I cannot find these set screws to buy separate, it seems they are supplied as part of this kit seal kit 9.06401 from House of Rohl that costs $20-$30 dollars. The screw looks like the pic below. I'd like to try buy a handful of these for less than 20 bucks a pop, but I don't recognize the screw type. Does anyone know what these are called or where to buy them? Alternatively, could I use a standard stainless set screw(grub screw) instead? Any suggestions on how to determine the thread type? The screw is in the back of the spout, which is only a few inches from the wall, and therefore very minimally visible so I don't think it is necessary to match the physical appearance perfectly. Thank you! -DIYoB
