Hi,

I bought a set of Fischer screws a few weeks back and have run out of one sort so would like to buy some more,only they've been mixed up and I don't know what size they are to replace them?

They are between these
4,0x25
4,0x30
4,0x35
4,0x40
4,5x50
5.0x50
4,0x60
5,0x60
5,0x70
5,0x100
6,0x60
6,0x100

Thanks!

It's either 4.5x50 or 5.0x50.

If it's fatter than the other ones the same length it's the 5.0x50 if thinner the 4.5x50 :wink:
