HP ProBook 440 G3 screw size

M2 / M2.5 / M3 · 2.5 to 6 mm long

The screws used on HP ProBook 440 G3 are M2, M2.5 and M3 in lengths from 2.5 to 6 mm.

There are 19 separate fitment records for it, including hinge (qty 2, broadhead, Phillips) (M2), power button (qty 1, Phillips) (M2) and unspecified (qty 1, Phillips) (M2), plus 16 more in the table below.

Head and drive, as the sources state them: Phillips and Torx T8 drives.

19 of the 19 records are marked confirmed, drawn from 1 source (h10032.www1.hp.com).

For reference, M2 is 2 mm across the threads at 0.4 mm pitch. The imperial size people confuse it with: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Laptop covers and brackets often mix two or three lengths of the same thread, so lay the screws out in the order they came out (a magnetic mat or a sheet of paper with the hole pattern drawn on it works).
  2. Diameter: across the threads an M2 screw measures about 2 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). This device also uses M2.5 / M3, so measure each screw rather than assuming they match.
  3. Pitch: 0.4 mm from one thread crest to the next (25 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
  4. Length: measure from under the head to the tip for pan, button, wafer and cap heads; countersunk (flat) heads are measured overall.
  5. The records span 2.5–6 mm, which means different positions take different lengths — match each hole to its own screw.
  6. Driver: the source names a Phillips drive. For comparison, standard M2 heads take PH0 (Phillips) or T6 (Torx), or a 1.5 mm hex key.
  7. Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M2 is about 25-40 N·cm into metal threads and 12-20 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.

Common mix-ups with M2 / M2.5 / M3

  • The standard M.2 SSD screw is M2 x 3mm, but some laptops and handhelds use non-standard lengths or head shapes.
  • M2.5 pitch is 0.45mm vs M3's 0.5mm and M2's 0.4mm — forcing the wrong one strips plastic bosses instantly.
  • Thorlabs' 16mm cage system standard plates use dual 4-40 (UNC) and M3 taps on the same plate (e.g., SP01), so metric and imperial fasteners are both valid depending on the region/kit purchased.

What size screw does HP ProBook 440 G3 use?
M2 × 3 mm for hinge (qty 2, broadhead, Phillips); M2 × 3 mm for power button (qty 1, Phillips); M2 × 3 mm for unspecified (qty 1, Phillips); M2 × 4 mm for display (qty 4, Phillips); M2 × 4 mm for display bezel (qty 2, Phillips); M2 × 4 mm for SSD (qty 1, Phillips); M2 × 4 mm for wireless card (qty 1, Phillips); M2 × 5 mm for speaker (qty 2, Phillips); M2.5 × 2.5 mm for palm rest (qty 1, Torx T8); M2.5 × 3 mm for hinge (qty 4, broadhead, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for battery (qty 2, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for card reader (qty 1, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for fan (qty 1, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for hard drive (qty 4, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for hinge (qty 4, Phillips); M2.5 × 5 mm for keyboard (qty 2,.
How long are the screws in HP ProBook 440 G3?
The records range from 2.5 to 6 mm depending on the position, so match each screw to its own hole.
What is the thread pitch of an M2 screw?
0.4 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M2 machine screws; a 0.25 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 1.6 mm and the normal clearance hole is 2.4 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for HP ProBook 440 G3?
The source lists a Phillips and Torx T8 drive. Standard M2 heads otherwise take PH0 (Phillips) or T6 (Torx), or a 1.5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M2?
No. Imperial look-alike: #2-56 UNC (2.18 mm) is close but not interchangeable. Use a true M2 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
Where can I buy replacement screws for HP ProBook 440 G3?
TechSpareWarehouse (our own store) lists M2 x 3mm, M2 x 4mm and M2 x 5mm, which match lengths in the records above.
