440 is a little smaller than 3mm, the little nubs that key to the brace might come off if you go that route. If the little nubs stay on it will give more support to any size screw you are putting on there plus it keys the brace to the bulk head. I want to try some 2.5mm screws which should be slightly bigger than the stock 2/56 screws.
