Question Brass M3 hexagon screw available?



I was astonished when I was told that brass M3x10 mm screw WITH hexagon head is not even made - much less available to buy - at least in Czech republic.

Screws M3x10mm and even from brass are not a problem, as long, as the head is round, pan or cheese - just like it is pictured there:

But one of my "genial" designs are extremly hard to diassembly AND assembly using these heads, so I would love to get my hands on like 10 pcs of such screws. The key words is M3, brass made and with the hexagon head.

My simple question is this - are screws like this made anywhere in the world, or the rest of the world also "did not have them" at all...?

Getting one that's 10mm long might be even harder than what you're looking for, but have you considered cutting down some standoffs?
