Valve Steam Deck / general small-electronics reference chart screw size
M1.4 · length not stated in the sources
If you are replacing a screw on Valve Steam Deck / general small-electronics reference chart, the thread is M1.4. None of the sources we found gives an exact length, so measure the original before you order.
Where it is used: M1.4 is used as reference alongside confirmed M1.2/M1.6/M2 fasteners in the Steam Deck screw-identification guide's thread family (chart cross-references M1.4 alongside directly measured Steam Deck screw types).
This entry is marked reported and comes from ifixit.com.
An M1.4 screw is 1.4 mm in diameter with a 0.3 mm pitch, tapped with a 1.1 mm drill; imperial look-alike: #0-80 UNF (1.52 mm) — close in diameter, different pitch, do not mix.

How to check the screw before you buy
- Phone and wearable screws are tiny and often differ by fractions of a millimetre between positions; keep each one next to the hole it came from.
- Diameter: across the threads an M1.4 screw measures about 1.4 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
- Pitch: 0.3 mm from one thread crest to the next (33.33 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 M1.4 heads take PH000 / PH00 for Phillips and T2–T3 for Torx, and a 1.3 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 M1.4 is about 8-12 N·cm into metal threads and 4-7 N·cm into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.
Common mix-ups with M1.4
- iPhone-series OEM screws use both 'Main Screw' and 'Super Screw' names for M1.4 fasteners with different lengths per model/position — always match by dimensional code (L x D x T), not just model name.
- M1.4 is THE Samsung Galaxy internal screw across S, A, M and Note lines — but lengths run 2.3mm to 4mm+ and are not interchangeable between models.

- How long are the screws in Valve Steam Deck / general small-electronics reference chart?
- 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 M1.4 screw?
- 0.3 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M1.4 machine screws. The tap drill is 1.1 mm and the normal clearance hole is 1.6 mm.
- What screwdriver do I need for Valve Steam Deck / general small-electronics reference chart?
- The sources do not name the drive. For M1.4, Phillips heads normally take PH000 / PH00 and Torx heads T2–T3; socket heads take a 1.3 mm hex key.
- Can I use an imperial screw instead of M1.4?
- No. Imperial look-alike: #0-80 UNF (1.52 mm) — close in diameter, different pitch, do not mix. Use a true M1.4 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
