Not sure on the size, M3 or M4 at a guess but am I right in thinking I can use any generic suitable length screws?
Thanks
Are you looking for dropout adjusters, as in this picture?
Those aren't really to adjust chain tension, but to make sure that the axle is in the right spot to center the rim in the frame - that's my understanding, anyway.
The spring helps to hold the adjuster in position, and the flat end touching the axle helps to protect the axle threads.
Your LBS should have those, or you can easily find them online.
In the meantime, if your frame is 'square' you can probably just slide the axle all the way back and lock the QuickRelease tight.
EDIT: My apologies - I saw this in the 'new posts' listing and didn't pay attention to the sub-forum : Track Bikes
Please ignore the above....
