This rim is missing the latch bolt. It looks to be a 5/16" x 24 tpi thread. Does it just use a short bolt and washer?

Thanks,

Just a sloted round head screw.

Then just flush on the under side?

I might add to Jeff's description - it's a rather LARGE round head slotted screw - no washer needed !

Been a while since I have seen an original screw.
I recall it looks a lot like an early cam bearing retaining screw.

The bolt/ screw was available at langs, I bought a couple a few months ago
