Make sure you get stainless hardware. Like Joe said, either take them with you, or bring a binding to verify the length. Hopefully someone could give you an exact length if you don't have any screws at all.

I used 3/4" with my alpha binding & Substance setup, but the alpha has a really thick plate. I bought 4-1/2", 4-3/4" & 4 - 1", along with stainless washers & lock washers for under $5 at home depot. That way my Tool Box has a range of parts to keep me boarding. I also used some lock tite on the threads to help out.

thanks guys. i got the 1/4-20 3/4 inch length and they worked fine. i got them from home depot so i didnt have to spend $20 on screws and wait a week for them to come. my local shop only has hyperlite bindings so they only have "the claw" type screws.

Jake,

I hope you atleast purchased stainless hardware. I would hate to have rust stain my equipment.

yea i got all stainless. it actually doesnt look bad. i got to get out for a little ride after the long winter. water temp is cold. ice came off friday, I was out sunday with a 3/2 wetsuit. feet were a little cold and the wind was chilly. The air was 55 and it was sunny. feels warm after all that winter freezing weather.
