BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants screw size
M1.6 / M2 · length not stated in the sources
BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants takes M1.6 and M2 metric screws. None of the sources we found gives an exact length, so measure the original before you order.
There are 2 separate fitment records for it, including titanium alloy hex abutment screw for 3.3mm, 3.8mm, and 4.3mm platforms (M1.6) and titanium alloy hex abutment screw for 5.0mm platforms (Art. No. C4005.2001) (M2).
2 of the 2 records are marked confirmed, drawn from 1 source (ebook.biohorizonscamlog.com).
M1.6 means a 1.6 mm nominal diameter with a 0.35 mm thread pitch. Imperial look-alike: #1-72 UNF (1.85 mm) is larger; there is no true imperial equivalent.

One row per fitment record. Head, drive are shown only where the source states them; pitch is the ISO coarse pitch for the thread.

How to check the screw before you buy
- Keep material and finish the same as the original (often stainless) on equipment that is cleaned or sterilised.
- Diameter: across the threads an M1.6 screw measures about 1.6 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). This device also uses M2, so measure each screw rather than assuming they match.
- Pitch: 0.35 mm from one thread crest to the next (28.57 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
- Length: measure from under the head to the tip for pan, button, wafer and cap heads; countersunk (flat) heads are measured overall.
- Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M1.6 heads take PH00 for Phillips and T4–T5 for Torx, and a 1.5 mm hex key for socket heads; a bit that fits loosely will cam out and strip the head.
- Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M1.6 is about 12-20 N·cm into metal threads and 6-10 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M1.6 / M2
- M2 (2.00mm, 0.4mm pitch) is NOT the same as #2-56 UNC (2.18mm) — close enough to cross-thread and strip if forced.

Questions about BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants screws
- What size screw does BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants use?
- M1.6 for titanium alloy hex abutment screw for 3.3mm, 3.8mm, and 4.3mm platforms; M2 for titanium alloy hex abutment screw for 5.0mm platforms (Art. No. C4005.2001).
- How long are the screws in BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants?
- None of the sources states a length. Remove one screw and measure it from under the head to the tip (overall for a countersunk head).
- What is the thread pitch of an M1.6 screw?
- 0.35 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M1.6 machine screws; a 0.2 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 1.25 mm and the normal clearance hole is 1.8 mm.
- What screwdriver do I need for BioHorizons CONELOG Dental Implants?
- The sources do not name the drive. For M1.6, Phillips heads normally take PH00 and Torx heads T4–T5; socket heads take a 1.5 mm hex key.
- Can I use an imperial screw instead of M1.6?
- No. Imperial look-alike: #1-72 UNF (1.85 mm) is larger; there is no true imperial equivalent. Use a true M1.6 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
