I agree with M10 with a 13mm head(odd yes). I only know because I lost one on my gravel drive and looked to find a replacement. I still only have five holding the cover on!.

Presumably that’s the same reason why mine had some 15mm in there then! Very Happy

That's a really odd bolt!
M10 are usually a 17mm head, maybe 15 if the head has a flange on it but 13 is small even with a flange.

I think I am going to replace mine with these

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/M10-10mm-BUTTON...SwjBVbvJXj

At £3.75 for 10 its worth it to have a few spares.

I have no connection with the above product, just found them after browsing this thread.

Cheers

Richard

Sometimes it just makes you wonder why?
A none standard bolt like that normally costs more!
