IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket screw size
M2.5 · 6 mm long
IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket takes M2.5 metric screws, 6 mm long.
The record covers official datasheet specifies 'Countersunk screw M2.5 x 6' to attach the sensor module to its mounting bracket.
Head and drive, as the source states them: flat / countersunk head.
This entry is marked confirmed and comes from ipetronik.com.
M2.5 means a 2.5 mm nominal diameter with a 0.45 mm thread pitch. Imperial look-alike: #3-48 / #4-40 (2.51 / 2.84 mm) — #4-40 is the common US stand-in and it will NOT thread in.

How to check the screw before you buy
- Rack and enclosure hardware mixes metric and imperial (#8-32, #10-32, #6-32), so confirm the thread before forcing a screw.
- Diameter: across the threads an M2.5 screw measures about 2.5 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- Pitch: 0.45 mm from one thread crest to the next (22.22 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
- Length: the source describes a countersunk (flat) head, and those are measured overall, from the top of the head to the tip.
- 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 M2.5 heads take PH1 for Phillips and T8 for Torx, and a 2 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 M2.5 is about 45-70 N·cm into metal threads and 20-35 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M2.5
- M2.5 pitch is 0.45mm vs M3's 0.5mm and M2's 0.4mm — forcing the wrong one strips plastic bosses instantly.
- M2.5 and M3 look the same to the naked eye — you need calipers on the shank to tell them apart.

Questions about IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket screws
- What size screw does IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket use?
- M2.5 × 6 mm for official datasheet specifies 'Countersunk screw M2.5 x 6' to attach the sensor module to its mounting bracket.
- How long are the screws in IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket?
- 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 M2.5 screw?
- 0.45 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M2.5 machine screws; a 0.35 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 2.05 mm and the normal clearance hole is 2.9 mm.
- What screwdriver do I need for IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket?
- The sources do not name the drive. For M2.5, Phillips heads normally take PH1 and Torx heads T8; socket heads take a 2 mm hex key.
- Can I use an imperial screw instead of M2.5?
- No. Imperial look-alike: #3-48 / #4-40 (2.51 / 2.84 mm) — #4-40 is the common US stand-in and it will NOT thread in. Use a true M2.5 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
- Where can I buy replacement screws for IPETRONIK M-SENS2 sensor module mounting bracket?
- TechSpareWarehouse (our own store) lists M2.5 x 6mm, which matches the length in the records above.
