For some reason I'm missing some screws on a couple of monitors I have (They came like this).

Im the sort of guy who doesn't have a load of screws lying around to try and see if they fit in the wholes until I get the right size... So I need to try and figure out which screws I need to buy to fit the following.

1. HANTAREX Polo 25" monitor

2x Screws to hold the chassis to the monitor frame

1x Screw to hold the earth to the chassis

2. HANTAREX MTC9000 19"

1x Screw to hold the earth to the chassis

3. HANTAREX MTC9000 10"

1x Screw to hold the earth to the chassis

I have a spare polo 25 in the shed that I think has the chassis screws still in it, I could measure the width and length for you, is there any easy way to identify the pitch of the thread? if not I could post one to you that you could try and match it up with something

Thanks Kev, that's very kind of you.

As it happens, I removed the US150 power supply from the machine I'm working on and the screws used to secure the ground are the same size as the Polo chassis! I guess I can take them into B&Q and match the size up.

Just missing the screw that holds the ground cable to the monitor on that chassis. I don't suppose you have that do you?

I have the one that connects to the chassis, but not the monitor frame, have done a little bit of investigation with a couple of screws I had laying around, and it looks like the 2 screws that mount the chassis to the frame and the 2 that hold the ground cable are all the same, I'm 99% sure that they are all M4' threads, well on mine anyway as my M4 screw seemed a perfect fit, the one that I took out was 8mm long.
