What size screw goes into a Samsung TV stand?
The following are screw sizes for your Samsung TV stand:
- M4 for 19 to 22 inches TVs
- M6 for 30 to 40 inches TVs
- M8 for 49 to 88 inches TVs
The screws should be included when you purchased the Samsung TV and you can call the manufacturer to request more if needed.
Bear in mind, the screw lengths vary depending on the thickness of the wall mounting bracket. Still, there is a universal TV mounting screw kit that is available.
How long is an M8 screw for Samsung TV?
The M8 screw is 45mm in length.
The M8 screws have a 1.25mm threaded pitch making it quite strong to keep your screen locked and secured.
The M8 screw is compatible with the Samsung Series 7 and 8 TVs, 55” QLED, 75″ QLED TV, 65nu8000, 49″ Samsung NU8000, 49″ Samsung q6, 55″ Samsung NU6900, 65” Samsung MU8500, 75″ Samsung NU7100, 2018 Samsung Q6 flat TV, Samsung 65” curved TV and more!
I strongly advise checking the manual for the installation procedure.
Does Samsung TV come with M8 screws?
Unfortunately, the M8 screws are not included in the package when you buy the Samsung TV.
I purchased a Samsung TV a few years back and it didn’t come with the M8 screw. I went to the hardware store and it was cheap.
I get it…
It’s strange that the screws didn’t come with the purchase considering the price we paid for the TV. Still, don’t worry about it as they’re cheap and widely available!
What is an M6 screw?
M6 screw has an outside diameter of 6mm that is compatible with Samsung TVs with sizes that range from 30 to 40 inches.
If you’re not sure about screw sizes, you can use a ruler to measure them. It should be 6 mm or more than 7/32″ (0.2362″)

What is the M4 screw size?
The size of the M4 screw size is 7/64 inches.
The M4 screw size is compatible with Samsung TV sizes of 19 to 22 inches.
The length of the M4 screws varies but share the same diameter of 4 mm which is equivalent to 0.15748.
Moreover, it is important to understand the length and thread count for you to choose the right screws for your Samsung TV.
What is the right screw size for 55 inch Samsung TV?
The M8 screw is the most suitable screw size for a 55-inch Samsung TV.
In addition, the M8 screw is also ideal for Samsung 50″, 55″, 65″, 75″, 6, 7, and 8 Series TVs. Also, it fits on the following models: 55″ NU8000, 55″ NU6950 TV, 55″ Q60R, 55″QLED Q6F, 65″ Q80R, 65Q60FN, 75″ UN75NU8000F, 75″ Q70R, UN65KS9000, QN49Q60R, QN65Q80R, UN60J6200, etc.
Again, check the TV manual to know the appropriate screw size for wall mounting your Samsung TV.
Do all Samsung TVs use the same mounting screws?
The short answer is no.
Samsung does not use the same mounting screws – there is a specific mounting screw for every TV size.
The other issue is that in some cases, Samsung does not supply the right bolts when you purchase their TVs.
At this point, the problem is not the diameter of M4, M6, and M8 but the length of the screws. This becomes an issue when trying to find the specific screw size for wall mounting the TV, especially for Samsung HDTVs.
I guess at this point it’s wiser to just buy a different wall mounting bracket. That’ll save you stress and time!
Final Say
There are different screw sizes for your Samsung TV base. The most common is the M4, M6, and M8 screws depending on the TV size.
I recommend checking the Samsung TV manual to know the right screw for your Samsung TV stand. Also, get to know the basics of screw sizes as they’re helpful while you’re trying to install your wall bracket.
I hope I was able to help you successfully hang your TV up!
