Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting screw size

M6 · 16 mm long

Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting takes M6 metric screws, 16 mm long.

It is listed for four M6x16mm fixing screws attach the VESA plate to the column adapter (300x300-400x400).

This entry is marked confirmed and comes from ivojo.co.uk.

M6 means a 6 mm nominal diameter with a 1 mm thread pitch. Imperial look-alike: 1/4in-20 (6.35 mm) — the tripod/camera thread; visibly larger than M6.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. VESA holes are threaded inserts in the back cover; if a screw stops early, back it out rather than forcing it, because a bottomed-out screw can crack the panel housing.
  2. Diameter: across the threads an M6 screw measures about 6 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
  3. Pitch: 1 mm from one thread crest to the next (10 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 record states 16 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
  6. Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M6 heads take PH3 for Phillips and T30 for Torx, and a 5 mm hex key for socket heads; a bit that fits loosely will cam out and strip the head.
  7. Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M6 is about 7-10 N·m into metal threads and 2.5-4.0 N·m into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.

Common mix-ups with M6

  • VESA display mounts are M4, M6 or M8 depending on the pattern size; measure before ordering.
  • VESA displays over 50kg move up to M8 x 1.25, which is outside metric M6 hardware - don't force an M6 bolt into a heavy-panel mount.

Questions about Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting screws

What size screw does Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting use?
M6 × 16 mm for four M6x16mm fixing screws attach the VESA plate to the column adapter (300x300-400x400).
How long are the screws in Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting?
The record gives 16 mm. Measure the original from under the head (overall for a countersunk head) to confirm before ordering.
What is the thread pitch of an M6 screw?
1 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M6 machine screws; a 0.75 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 5 mm and the normal clearance hole is 6.6 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for Unicol VMSV2 VESA direct column fitting?
The sources do not name the drive. For M6, Phillips heads normally take PH3 and Torx heads T30; socket heads take a 5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M6?
No. Imperial look-alike: 1/4in-20 (6.35 mm) — the tripod/camera thread; visibly larger than M6. Use a true M6 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
