They are grub screws, albeit long ones, if you ask / search for them under that nae you may have more success.

cant you just use stainless studding and put a hacksaw across the end for a screwdriver slot if you really need it?
normally you just put two nuts on to wind them till they bottom out then remove the nuts.
or was there aparticular reason you needed them socket ended?

Personally I'd get a long 12.9 bolt cut the head off and temporarily lock two half nuts together at the top of the threaded section to put the
spanner on to get it in then unlock the nuts and remove.
Happy days.

Also try Pugh & Sanders in Burton/Tamworth/Derby. They usually stock that sort of stuff

have you tried the screw place behind B&Q in coventry?
(trying to remember the name and can't at the moment).
Just make sure you get the old boy and mention its for a kit car. They used to do all the nut & bolts for caterham. You want to avoid the young
(30's) guy as he's an a*se & couldn't cope with the fact i was telling him how long a shank i wanted not the total bolt length.
He then couldn't understand why the old boy who figures out the prices charged me sod all after he'd spent 20 minutes finding bolts i
didn't want.
(old boy listened to the conversations and probably had his head in his hands listening in).
