Dental/prosthetic digital analog abutment screw screw size
M1.6 · length not stated in the sources
Dental/prosthetic digital analog abutment screw takes M1.6 metric screws. None of the sources we found gives an exact length, so measure the original before you order.
The record covers registered medical-device listing: 'Medical Device SCREW M1.6 FOR DIGITAL ANALOG' from Prodent Italia, used in prosthetic dentistry accessories.
This entry is marked confirmed and comes from medicaldevices24.com.
For reference, M1.6 is 1.6 mm across the threads at 0.35 mm pitch. The imperial size people confuse it with: #1-72 UNF (1.85 mm) is larger; there is no true imperial equivalent.

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). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- 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.

- How long are the screws in Dental/prosthetic digital analog abutment screw?
- 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 Dental/prosthetic digital analog abutment screw?

- Can I use an imperial screw instead of M1.6?
