What you're describing is very similar to a Hi-Lok or Hi-Lite fastener we
use in the aerospace industry. Flat head that looks like a rivet with a
thread and a hex key recess in the end of the pin to keep it from spinning
while installing either a lock nut, or a special collar that shears off
when a certain torque is reached.
They're not cheap, but they are available and they go down to =C3=98 1/8".
