found this on minispares:-

3/8" high tensile Bolt but 3/16" longer at 1.5" long for use on our 7.5" 4 pot alloy calipers or any other usage when longer bolts are required for mounting the calipers to the hubs. The ERA turbo used Metro 4 pot calipers and used special nylon coated safety locking bolts ERA1128

guess its 3/8" then and 1.5" long

yep - is 3/8". went to a local fastenings supplier and got 4 suitable bolts for £1 all in - better than paying £3.52 (era turbo ones) each from minispares
