I don't have the original bolt, so I can't tell if it was metric or SAE. The wedge I have is just a random one I grabbed from a bin at the Reno Bike Project. It is threaded 5/16" x 22TPI, which is British Fine thread.

I'll be making no changes to the stem itself, so installing the correct bolt later on will present no difficulty.
