    If you don’t have a thread gauge, you should be able to take the screw to Home Depot/Lowes or the hardware store and use their thread gauges or just find a nut that fits it to determine the proper size and thread pitch.

    It probably is metric as it seems most hardware is these days even if it’s made in the US.
