Seatpost clamp

I took the seatpost clamp off my road bike and the screw is stripped. Are the allen screws a standard size? As far as I can tell, the threads machined into the clamp are still intact, so I'm hoping to just swap out the screw.

Those socket head screws (Allen is a brand name) are typically standard metric sizes.

Scratch that. A bolt from another seatpost didn't work either, so the clamp and bolt are shot. Guess I'm getting a new one.
