Hi, welcome to the Forum.

My 2005 American Strat takes a 0.050 thou' hex key on the block saddles. I believe the vintage ones take the same key - but you could check it for yourself on this page:

I had the same issue on a vintage bridge, I had to go to Rudy's on broadway and the guy just gave me the right key for it. Still dont know what size it is though.

It uses a .050 hex key for adjustment like every one said. The screws themselves are 4-40 threaded.
