Nylon bolts. Other types of plastic are available but nylon works for me. The ones I use are technically set screws with a flat-head screwdriver slot in the top.

Why plastic instead of any old metal bolt?

because the coating is less likely to adhere to the nylon rather than metal as some will likely penetrate down the threads or between the screw/bolt and the frame

Wot freezing77 said. And they're much, much cheaper than a metal bolt.
