How to check the screw before you buy
- Camera and optics hardware often uses short screws into thin threaded plates, so check engagement before tightening fully.
- Diameter: across the threads an M4 screw measures about 4 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- Pitch: 0.7 mm from one thread crest to the next (14.29 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.
- The records span 10–25 mm, which means different positions take different lengths — match each hole to its own screw.
- Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M4 heads take PH2 for Phillips and T20 for Torx, and a 3 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 M4 is about 2.0-3.0 N·m into metal threads and 0.8-1.4 N·m into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M4
- Camera rig/cage accessories (SmallRig, Wooden Camera/Metabones) frequently mix M4 structural screws with 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 imperial mounting points on the same product — verify which specific fastener a manual is referencing before ordering replacements.
- Dashcam mounts advertised as '1/4" M4 screw joint' have two different threads: the 1/4"-20 camera thread and a separate M4 grub screw for the ball joint — don't order the wrong one.
