    Those are probably Too Short,
    I think the 10mm is the Overall length and you need some with about 15mm thread length,
    Overall length includes the Head also,
    So, you need some with overall length about 18mm, I think.

    The .50 number is the thread Pitch, or shape of treads.
    and .5 is the most common M3 pitch.
