Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L) screw size
M1.2 · length not stated in the sources
If you are replacing a screw on Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L), the thread is M1.2. None of the sources we found gives an exact length, so measure the original before you order.
Where it is used: proximal (passive) bending section screw for 180 to X1 series.
This entry is marked confirmed and comes from reparts.eu.
An M1.2 screw is 1.2 mm in diameter with a 0.25 mm pitch, tapped with a 0.95 mm drill; imperial look-alike: #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
- For medical and lab equipment, use the manufacturer's replacement part where one is specified; the thread size here helps identify it, not certify it.
- Diameter: across the threads an M1.2 screw measures about 1.2 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- 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.
- Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M1.2 heads take PH000 / JIS 00 for Phillips and T1–T2 for Torx; 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 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
- M1.2 and M1.4 look identical in an eyeglass repair kit — the wrong one strips soft acetate or metal hinges.

Questions about Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L) screws
- What size screw does Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L) use?
- M1.2 for proximal (passive) bending section screw for 180 to X1 series.
- How long are the screws in Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L)?
- None of the sources states a length. Remove one screw and measure it from under the head to the tip (overall for a countersunk head).
- What is the thread pitch of an M1.2 screw?
- 0.25 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M1.2 machine screws. The tap drill is 0.95 mm and the normal clearance hole is 1.4 mm.
- What screwdriver do I need for Olympus Colonoscopes (CF-HQ190L)?
- The sources do not name the drive. For M1.2, Phillips heads normally take PH000 / JIS 00 and Torx heads T1–T2.
- Can I use an imperial screw instead of M1.2?
- No. Imperial look-alike: #0-80 UNF (1.52 mm) is the closest imperial screw, but it is bigger — not a substitute. Use a true M1.2 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
