<DIV>Matt,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have used # 6-32 socket cap screws for years now and never had a
failure</DIV>
<DIV>with these. Buy a box of 100 about 2" long at your local industrial
supply</DIV>
<DIV>for about $20-25, cut of the heads, put a couple of grooves in the non
threaded</DIV>
<DIV>part for the epoxy to hold and glue these into the hard point (1/2" dia
dowel) in </DIV>
<DIV>your movable surface. Do no drill all the way through. Just up to the top
sheeting.</DIV>
<DIV>You can offset the hole in the hard point toward the hinge</DIV>
<DIV>line to adjust for proper distance for the hole in the plastic end, that
receives the</DIV>
<DIV>clevis, to line up over the hinge line. Socket cap screw are heat treated,
but not </DIV>
<DIV>all the way. They still have a soft core and will bend under enough force,
but</DIV>
<DIV>not with the amount of force used to move the surfaces.</DIV>

<DIV>Keith, please note that 4-40's are known to snap off a control surface.
It has happened to me. The break is a straight forward fatigue fracture. If
6-32's are not useful to you, consider 5-40's. Personally, I do find 6-32s do
just fine in this application</DIV>
