What type screw is this?!

Those measurements look odd, what's 1-1.2mm ??

 

That's a small screw, for that size it's off a small electrical appliance or similar.

1) Is it a countersunk head

2) Does it have a machine thread?

 

James, how long is this countersunk-head machine screw? That's all you need, man - the thickness of the shaft and the length.

You reckon it's 6mm diameter? But you have nothing to measure it with? Do you have a drill set? Then drill a hole in something that'll drill a clean, neat, accurate hole - like plastic - using a 6mm drill bit. See if that screw fits in easily but not loosely. If it's M6 (metric 6mm) it should fit cleanly but not flop about too much.

Then pay a visit to your favourite retailer; http://www.screwfix.com/p/socket-countersunk-screws-a2-stainless-steel-m6-x-25mm-pack-of-50/37791

Scroll down and see other lengths.

(Comes in various lengths...)

 

(Then flog the other 49, one by one, on eBay...)

 

Laptop screws can be around that size if that helps.

Mr. HandyAndy - Really

 

Is there any chance of contacting the manufactures? The screw has a fine thread (pitch) and it is possible that you may ruin the tapped thread using a wrong screw.

 

Try taking a close up picture with a ruler by it

 

It has already been said that it is 1mm-1.2mm diameter and 6mm long!

why not take the screw to a screw shop and ask them if they have a screw that is the same as your screw, but a new screw !!!!!this may work.......

 

Blimey, James - I'd assumed your first post had a measuring typo!

Hmmm, surely you have a choice of (a) getting an engineer to measure it so's you know exactly what you want, or (b) contact the manufacturer of the leccy replica rifle (what the hell is that, anyways?)

The only screws I know of approaching that size are used in clocks, watches and some electronic devices such as harddrives, and other PC components as Mr ha says.

But, most of these other screws will be pan-head. And, anyways, what are the chances of them being identical? Pretty much zero.

 

Iaptop screws aren't a size you tosspot!

 

I'll have you know that I have screws that size from dismantled laptops and bits.

I didn't say laptop screws were 'a size'. I said they can be around that size. Wake up.

Digging a big hole again Handy

 

Not as big as the one you're digging.

 

What is the screw from?

Hmm

 

Have you been drinking?
