Actually, I need 4 x M2.5 screws. Not sure pitch, but I THINK 0.45

Anyone help? My local electronics joint only has M2 and M3, and Bunnings has M2.

REALLY prefer counter sink head if possible too.

Not sure what length you want, or if the pitch varies, but online they are around:

Here are a few other possibilities (mostly cap screws):

I recently needed to get some M2.5 screws. The only place I could find them was at an RC hobby shop!

Cheers,

I had the same problem a while back. Needed some M2.5 cap head socket screws for a micro-turbine project, only place I could find them was on ebay and RC hobby shops.

Coventry Fasteners just laughed at me, don't blame them really, I laughed too, but it was worth a try.

I found D connectors work perfectly, but I really don't need the hex head protruding out.

So, hobby shop here I come :)

Thanks guys

Model Fixings is the place to go...they look after all my fasteners for the Spectra-L200 Kit.
