I've noticed this, and was looking into a 90degree 30%reduced height fastener, but can only locate them in standard thread, no metric.

In addition i was only able to locate standard thread for 100 degree screws.

So in both cases(90 or 100 degree) i'm stuck with what i've got at the moment untill i can locate a supplier for either of the two options, it works well but i am on the lookout for another method.
