How to check the screw before you buy
- Printers and POS terminals often use self-tapping screws into plastic; re-use the original thread path instead of cutting a new one.
- Diameter: across the threads an M3 screw measures about 3 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- Pitch: 0.5 mm from one thread crest to the next (20 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
- Length: for button head screws, measure from under the head to the tip (countersunk heads are the exception: they are measured overall).
- The record states 6 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
- Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M3 heads take PH1 for Phillips and T10 for Torx, and a 2.5 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 M3 is about 80-130 N·cm into metal threads and 35-60 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M3
- Terminal-block clamp screws have manufacturer-specific torque values — over-tightening cracks the block or crushes the wire.
- DIN-rail terminal blocks are near-universally M3 across Dinkle, TE, Omron and RND, but torque differs (0.5-0.8 Nm) — over-torquing an M3 terminal screw strips it instantly.
