Hello!

If you buy Volvo anodes you get new screws with them. Don't know about the replacement ones from other sources. They are standard metric M6 from memory.

The prop ring anodes come with new screws, but the last few VP leg anodes I have bought (modified ones for rope cutter) didn't have new screws included.

BTW, I've got a few 120S anodes I plan to put on eBay, as they don't fit my new saildrive leg.
