Just like jhautz, I buy screws in bulk from McMaster-Carr. I order the 12.9 black oxide screws, and they hold up very well. However, in my experience any of these screws which use a 2mm hex driver do not like the Associated 5/64" (what Associated calls 2mm, actually 1.984mm), and I strip out those screws quite frequently, along with 3mm set screws that use a 1.5mm driver. It's very possible that the tips on my 1.5mm and 2mm drivers just need to be replaced, but they're only maybe a year old.
