Which VESA screws do i need?

[Bljuzga]

Hi everyone i just ordered a monitor and I just saw after ordering that I would require m6 x 10 bolts to attach it to my monitor arm and they are not supplied with the monitor. 

 

Would these be the ones I need? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Flanged-Socket-Button-Machine-Screw/dp/B07MT44F2P/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?s=diy&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1549406419&sr=1-2-spons&keywords=m6+x+10mm&refinements=p_76%3A419158031&psc=1

Thanks for the help

Those are the correct thread but you are a little short, it's only 8mm long. These should do, just check with the bracket as VESA mounting plates can be thinner or thicker depending on the product.

I have this monitor arm: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B072MGJW2H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is the manual for a similar model, I can't find this exact one on their site

Currently I have a benq gc2870 mounted not sure If i can use those same screws

Double check your packaging. A lot of monitors come with the screws taped to them in such a way that you don't realize they are there when you rip the tape off.

Check your manual, from what I see on the site here you should be using M4 x10mm screw not M6.

Not quite.

 

With Metric, the first measure is the Diametre of Screw, in this case 6mm and the other one is the lenth. So the 8mm long M6 should be fine for the most part...

Oh that's the new monitor, yeah they screws will be of a different size than the current one. M4 Vs M6.

Are you able to link them on a shop that might deliver to Ireland most of the links from amazon uk don't deliver the screws over here for some reason. Possibly I could get some in a shop here if i know what I'm looking for exactly

If you run down to the local hardware store or fastener supply you shouldn't have any issue finding M6 x10mm sized fasteners, it's a really common size.

I found this set online, its easier to order due to work this week. I believe it should include the ones i need

They list M4 Screws, so you might want to look for them as well.

 

Since they aren't expensive, I'd get both.

 

But I have to agree with @W-L M6 are weird for just a TV or Monitor, though it is possible, its more likely we are talking about M4.

 

So just get them both, you waste like 50c or so on them.

[Bljuzga]

The kit i ordered should include both.

 

Thanks everyone for the quick replies
