I believe they’re 8/32 UNC.
#8 thread diameter (0.16 inches)

If you want to replace or upgrade them go for stainless steel.
Looks as good as chrome and will not rust

This doesn’t really answer your question directly but here’s a list of all of the screws on the frame.

If using stainless steel, dab a tiny bit of anti-seize on threads to prevent galling. FWIW Pat

Nice! First time I’ve seen a comprehensive list of all the hardware required.
Someone should put that in the Tech Wiki.
