My application is to make a small circular PCB which will 'plug' in place
of a Z566 tube - hence the need for 1mm diameter pins. This small board
will then have some interconnecting pins (positioned within the confines of
the Z566 pin positions) that reach up to a similar small board which has
Richard, I have quite a bit of experience with these in a number of
different applications. On the off chance you haven't discovered this,
here are links to the two biggest manufacturers:
Mill-Max (obviously you've found them)

Very nice looking adapters though. I am looking at some pins that have a
slight shoulder which will (hopefully) mitigate against them being pushed
through the board.

I haven't used that exact type of pins but I tried a similar type and had
some problems with them when they were subjected to pressure from the side
which resulted in them coming loose. I had to minimize the hole diameter in
the circuit board almost to a press-fit size so they couldn't
