Mcmaster sell partially threaded studs, no slot in them though. Sounds like you need a lot, otherwise they would be easy to make out of those partially threaded studs or a long bolt that is not fully threaded.
What are they used for?

McMaster is my goto vendor, and I was surprised they didn't have them. I know I could fabricate them but It would be so much more convenient to just buy a box from somewhere (other than overseas).
Plan "B" would be to cut off the heads of stock bolts and slit the screwdriver slot with a slitting saw. Or perhaps omit the slot entirely and finger tighten then Loctite the screws in.
I was going to make a lathe tool holder rack with them like the one below.
Sounds like a set screw, but maybe you need something longer. I found slotted-head set screws at McMaster but they max out at 1/2" (and you have to go to 1/4-20 size to get that).
