A M8 bolt should work fine. Can fine one at any hardware store.

I've just had this same problem, and sent emails to both my retailer supplier, and SkyWatcher requesting replacement thumbscrew under warranty ... hoping they'll just send out a new one.  In the mean time I'll probably also look at the hardware store M8 bolt option, although that would lack the black knob that makes it quick and easy to adjust.
