Salut!

Diameter is 2.8mm
Threading seems to be an Inch Threading, something
close to M3 (not a fine thr.), but NOT M3 (of course).

I hope that helps.

Salut Thomas

It helps as you think like me about the threading type, but which one ??
May be somebody has 2 screws to sell to me, that would be a nice way :o)))
MFG

Salut André!

I have found out that the threading type is called 4-40.
The numbers mean: Size 4 (=2.9mm), and 40 turns per inch.

Unfortunately I haven't such screws left. Maybe you ask your
hobby dealer or buy some in UK or in the USA.

Bonne chance! :)
