HP Spectre Pro13 G1 screw size
M1.2 / M2 · 2.5 to 5 mm long
HP Spectre Pro13 G1 takes M1.2 and M2 metric screws in lengths from 2.5 to 5 mm.
There are 8 separate fitment records for it, including battery (qty 4, Phillips) (M1.2), fan (qty 2, Phillips) (M2) and heat sink (qty 3, Phillips) (M2), plus 5 more in the table below.
Head and drive, as the sources state them: Phillips drive.
8 of the 8 records are marked confirmed, drawn from 1 source (h10032.www1.hp.com).
For reference, M1.2 is 1.2 mm across the threads at 0.25 mm pitch. The imperial size people confuse it with: #0-80 UNF (1.52 mm) is the closest imperial screw, but it is bigger — not a substitute.

How to check the screw before you buy
- A screw that is even 1 mm too long in a laptop base can push into the keyboard, battery or a board trace, so match the length position by position.
- Diameter: across the threads an M1.2 screw measures about 1.2 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). This device also uses M2, so measure each screw rather than assuming they match.
- Pitch: 0.25 mm from one thread crest to the next (40 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 2.5–5 mm, which means different positions take different lengths — match each hole to its own screw.
- Driver: the source names a Phillips drive. For comparison, standard M1.2 heads take PH000 / JIS 00 (Phillips) or T1–T2 (Torx).
- Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M1.2 is about 5-8 N·cm into metal threads and 3-5 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M1.2 / M2
- M1.2 and M1.4 look identical in an eyeglass repair kit — the wrong one strips soft acetate or metal hinges.
- The standard M.2 SSD screw is M2 x 3mm, but some laptops and handhelds use non-standard lengths or head shapes.
- M2 (2.00mm, 0.4mm pitch) is NOT the same as #2-56 UNC (2.18mm) — close enough to cross-thread and strip if forced.

- The source lists a Phillips drive. Standard M1.2 heads otherwise take PH000 / JIS 00 (Phillips) or T1–T2 (Torx).
