Hello,
Please can anyone give me the vesa screw sizes for a Samsung LCDTV model LE32R8.
I've tried M6 but they only go in a couple of turns and I don't want to strip the threads.
Regards John

i think they are m5 screws

had a samsung a couple of years ago and m6 was too big

so i got m5 and m4

bought both to be safe--but think i used the m5

they were dirt cheap off ebay so got both sizes to save the frustration

Thank you for your reply. I tried M5 screws and they went straight through.
I took the telly round to a friend with a workshop and he carefully ran an M6 tap through them. This recut the threads and did the job perfectly. I still have no idea what the original threads were, Samsung product support were no good either!
Many thanks anyway.

I did the same thing you did. Had a sheet metal worker friend of mine come over and tap the holes out to M6 because the M5 was too small and the M6 was too big. Hard to believe a Japanese TV like Samsung would be using standard size screws. Many thanks!
