The screws used on Equinox 6200M POS terminal mount (PTS-04-6200) are M3, 6 mm long.

It is listed for button head and pan-head screws for adapter plate.

Head and drive, as the source states them: button head.

This entry is marked confirmed and comes from assets.hathomework.com.

M3 means a 3 mm nominal diameter with a 0.5 mm thread pitch. Imperial look-alike: #5-40 (3.18 mm) or #4-40 — neither interchanges with M3.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Printers and POS terminals often use self-tapping screws into plastic; re-use the original thread path instead of cutting a new one.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Length: for button head screws, measure from under the head to the tip (countersunk heads are the exception: they are measured overall).
  5. The record states 6 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.

How long are the screws in Equinox 6200M POS terminal mount (PTS-04-6200)?
The record gives 6 mm. Measure the original from under the head (overall for a countersunk head) to confirm before ordering.
What is the thread pitch of an M3 screw?
0.5 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M3 machine screws; a 0.35 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 2.5 mm and the normal clearance hole is 3.4 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for Equinox 6200M POS terminal mount (PTS-04-6200)?
The sources do not name the drive. For M3, Phillips heads normally take PH1 and Torx heads T10; socket heads take a 2.5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M3?
No. Imperial look-alike: #5-40 (3.18 mm) or #4-40 — neither interchanges with M3. Use a true M3 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
Where can I buy replacement screws for Equinox 6200M POS terminal mount (PTS-04-6200)?
TechSpareWarehouse (our own store) lists M3 x 6mm, which matches the length in the records above.
