  1. Thread M3 = the threaded shank is 3 mm across. Hold the old screw against a ruler or use calipers; M2, M2.5 and M3 look alike but do not swap.
  2. Length 4 mm is measured from under the head to the tip. Too long can hit parts behind the hole.
  3. Same device? Check the model in the title and the Fits list above against the label on your device.

Still unsure? Send us a photo of the screw next to a ruler and the device model.

  • Permanent damage to delicate parts

How to Choose the Correct Screw

Selecting the correct screw is important for proper fit, strength, and long-term reliability. Before ordering, confirm the following:

Screw Size (Diameter)

Measure the outer thread diameter of the screw. Metric screws are labeled in millimeters, such as M2, M2.5, or M3.

Length

Measure from under the head to the tip of the screw unless otherwise specified by the head style.

Thread Type

Ensure the thread matches the receiving material. Most electronics and hardware applications require metric machine threads rather than self-tapping threads.

Head Type

Confirm the head style needed for proper seating, such as flat head, pan head, or button head.

Drive Type

Match the drive type (Phillips, Torx, Hex, etc.) to the tools you plan to use and the torque requirements of the application.

Material & Finish

Choose the appropriate material and finish based on strength, corrosion resistance, and environmental conditions.

If you are replacing an existing screw, we recommend removing one and comparing the diameter, length, and head type directly before ordering to ensure a proper fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can these screws be used as replacements?

Yes. These screws are ideal replacements for lost or stripped screws in compatible devices. We recommend comparing one existing screw for best fit.
