Dufferin pin type?

[Strange_Days]

Hi, I'm pretty new to any joint pin work and I got a dufferin cue in with a broken pin and area I need to replace. The pin itself is 5/16-14 but has a break in the thread. anyone know where I can pick up a pin like this? Here is a picture of the broken one



If not can I use a regular steel pin? Thanks

Matt I just checked my junk drawer and I have 1/2 dozen of those pins broken in exactly the same spot. They are 5/16x14 and a regular threaded pin can be used to replace them.
