M2 x 2mm screws — what they fit & where to buy

108 sourced applications in this database list a M2 screw at 2 mm (or a length range that includes it), most of them in laptops & pcs. A M2 x 2mm screw has a 0.4 mm coarse pitch, so a fully engaged 2 mm shank gives about 5 thread turns (1× the diameter).

Buy these screws at TechSpare Warehouse

In stock and shipped from South Carolina. Our black screws are Phillips wafer head (low profile); match the head style and length to the original before you order.

Length is measured from under the head for pan, wafer and button heads, and overall for flat (countersunk) heads. Neighbouring sizes we track: M2 x 2.5 mm (73).Going 0.5 mm too long can bottom out in a blind boss or touch a board underneath.
