Hi Glen,
Did you have any issue when screwing the bolt into the mount? After a few turns, mine got stuck, so I gave it a bit more and i think I've butchered the thread in the mount head, i'm now having trouble putting the original tripod shaft through.
The ones i bought were from Masters, same type of pack though ( high tensile 2pk ). I guess the thread is different.
EDIT: I just checked the ANSI/ISO specifications for an M12 bolt. And it should be 12mm x 1.75mm. Why o' why do masters sell 12mm in everything BUT 1.75mm pitch?
