Yes it’s the standard camera/tripod thread. 1/4 Whitworth fits too. Ebay is a good source

That's a standard camera-tripod bolt thread size so you might find one in the accessories section of a local camera shop but otherwise it's not something you'd find in hardware store.

Amazon or Ebay have loads, usually available in small quantities, but if you are after an unusual bolt length, material or head style you would need to go to a specialist fixings supplier like Westfield Fasteners, but like most specialist fixings suppliers they do have a minimum order qty and it's a more expensive option if you only need one.
