<DIV>Tom,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Actually, what a truss head screw profile looks like is a very thin
pan-head style. The one you described is actually called an oval head screw.
THis link will show you all the different head types: <A

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>To find a 4-40 screw that is indeed truss or oval head, try <A

<DIV>I also have an Aviall across the street from the airport I work at, I can
call and see if they have them that small. </DIV>
