Track down J.I. Morris (no connection to me). You should be able to
find their address in the Thomas Register. They may have what you
need. It's been a long time since I've seen their catalog but, as I
remember, #2 was their biggest screw size.

In the UK the smaller sizes are measured in BA. 12 BA are readily
available and I use them in clock making . They have 0.0511" OD (1.40mm
clearance hole) and can be obtained in 1/2" length with cheese head from
Meadows and Passmore Ltd Phone 01892 662255 they have other larger sizes
available as well. Hope they are of help .
