What size of screws are needed for wall mount null

Question

oodio · Accepted Answer

I see the question is over a week old, I hope this answer helps someone that is trying to be prepared to wall mount it from their original TV wall mount or new one.
Before I purchased this model I tried to find the owners manual on the Samsung website like the one that came with it (they are not the same) I was replacing my old samsung that was wall mounted with M8 x 15 mm screws through the wall mount
This new one mounts nothing like that, The four mounting holes are closer together (lucky my mount is adjustable) and with the curved top on the back it is not flush with the mount so you have to use the 4 supplied wall mount adapters and longer screws (Not included) This is because on this new TV the threads are sunk down into the back of it instead of being almost flush on the old all flat back on the old one 
The instructions say the screw size needed is M8 x 43-45mm 1.25 pitch (I think my old screws were 1.0 pitch)

Mohammad · Answer

M8 45mm

I am trying to mount this tv right now. We have bought two mounting kits. Both DO NOT include these length screws. I do not think any mounting kit will have this length screw since this is an irregular setup. 

I am going to go to home Depot to get the required screw

I purchased M8 x 45mm (1.25) and these do not fit. There are two different screw sizes for this tv. I will need to get the whole set and see which length fits best.

M is metric.
8 is the width (M8 id bigger than an M6 for example)
1.25 is the pitch
45 mm is the length

i have 58 inch samsung tu7000 202 from best buy.    i replaced a samsung 48 inch tv ten yrs old.   both were wall mounts.

i removed the 48 inch tv and trierd to use the samr wall mount kit for the 58 inch tv.    NOT SO FAST.........    the screws on the 48 inch wall mount did not fit the 58 inch tv.   i call samsung.  i was told i needed a M8 .125 pitch 20 to 22 mm screw.   ok i went to ace hardware and purchase screws..     not really...  these dont fit either.   call samsung   refered to samsung dealer j&j.   they sell the wall mount kit but would not tell me size screw i needed.   they refered me to samsung tech support.   
i called samsung again.   they read from the manual M* .125 pitch 20-22 mm in lenght.   i hung up on them went to best buy
who dont stock samsung wall mt. kits.   but did refer me to a store 1 hour away that had a screw kit for $20.00.

enought.. i purchase M8 pitch.125 screws from home depot.  they were 2.75 each.  i got the M8 45mm screws... tried them out and they fit but were to long.   returned them and got 30mm M8 screws.   these fit perfectly with one washer.   5 hours later my new tv was up and running.

BUY M8 .125 pitch 30mm screws and washers to fit and you will 
not go nuts dealing with samsung.

this is for the 58 inch TU7000 2020 model.  no screws come with this tv for wall mount.

For the 50” NU6900 4K Samsung tv, I used M8-1.25 x 50’s and the corresponding washers. 
I bought them at Lowe’s.

Some wall mount kits include, like the guy said, every screw combination needed to mount your tv, but that’s only if you buy the expensive kit... the less expensive kits, like from HF do NOT include but a handful of various size screws and unfortunately the tv manufactures use no set of standards when it comes to mounting... You can be sure if they were manufactured in America there would be no need for dozens of different screws, we would standardize the installation process and make mounting it an enjoyable project, rather than the stressful process created by overseas manufacturers.
If you’re going to HD to get screw hardware, don’t forget flat washers and various spacers, or just a bunch more washers, and it’s less expensive to purchase long screws and space them back rather than too short screws and have to go back to the hardware store two or three times bcz metric is tricky.
Good luck!

The screws for my wall mount came with the wall mount, and the wall mounts come with every possible type of screw needed for any TV brand. This Samsung requires spacers for screw attachment to the TV, they are included along with the correct screw size listed in the instructions for the TV. The correct size screws will then be included with your mounting bracket. At least, that was my experience.
