Dear Billy,
It is very difficult to determine what size screw for the TV bracket.

• If you bought a wall bracket, it will definitely have different sizes of screws in it.
• Follow the installation guide for what Size screw to use on the TV. It varies by manufacturers.
• Get a Universal Bracket.

Good Luck!

Bolt size is M6 bolt pattern and thread pitch. A 15 to 25 mm long bolt is recommended depending on the thickness of the wall bracket.

I got got this from GPX. If you email them you can get the full TV guide.

sounds like the wrong bracket for that TV.

Yes it will hold,the wall mount u bought it design for weight of 160 LBS and 50"-60" screen sized right?Just make sure hook up the wall mount on and over a wall area with strong woods beams supports have many fours by fours woods beams lumbers to take off the stress of the holding of the tv by those screws alone of the screen frame screws supports only.

If you are talking about the mounting screws that go into the back of the television to mount a VESA sized wall bracket, then it's most likely 5mm screws. The length of the screws could differ, depending on the bracket you are attaching, but usually 12mm or 16mm can be used. just make sure that the screws are long enough to thread into the TV completely, but not too long, or they may damage internal components.

If you are talking about the Lag screws needed to mount the bracket to the wall, then use 3/8" width lag screws 2 1/2" to 3 1/2" long, depending on how deep you have to go before hitting the wood stud.

There is no single answer that I can give you because it will vary due to material you are mounting to. If you are going to be mounting on ceramic tile or fiberglass shower wall I would recommend you use the plastic anchors that come with the bracket and mounting screws. Use drill size 3/16 drill holes and insert anchors. Mount bracket and screw in place. If you have hollow wall with nothing but sheetrock to hold the bracket I would get small butterfly anchors from hardware store and drill hole slightly larger than the wings on fastener when they are folded back along side the screws.If you have a wood backer board behind shower wall then drill holes with 1/8 inch bit and use screws long enough to reach through shower wall and sheet rock and mount bracket. Hope this helps you. Thanks P.S. If you have to drill thru ceramic tile you will need a carbide tipped bit.

Metric M5 or M6, when you buy wall mounting bracket, it will came with a bag of screws for attaching the TV to the bracket. All my wall mounting brackets for my TV come with screw.

The screw holes are metric. The set is supplied with M5x25 screws to attach the pedestal, so the wall mount screws will be in that same range.
