Bolt that holds tap head snapped!

Options
Strange one this and not sure if anyone will be able to help.

I have a Roca tap on my bathroom sink, I noticed the hot tap was slipped so went to tighten the screw and it snapped, looks like rust.

Question is, where can I get a replacement screw from?!
Have tried B&Q, they all look the same, have tried to different types and they are either marginally too thick or too small.

Any ideas?

    Ah but they are not all the same as you've found out. Though of trying Roca? They're in Leicestershire somewhere. You may possibly need to replace the whole head gear.

    try a specialist engineering suppliers. They tend to have all the screws in all the sizes.
