I have no idea . .do you mean the screw head? You might have to try a metric hex Your best bet is to contact Photodiox (they have a website) and verify the screw type or size. They've been very helpful in the past.

bring it to only hardware store, if you have the screws you can match the proper ones, if you don't just see which ones screw into the threaded holes. anyone at any hardware store had been more than helpful to help me find what I'm looking for. so don't be afraid to ask for some help.

Go to the nearest hardware store and buy longer screws. Take the short ones along so you get the right diameter and thread size.

It is not a standard size. It is a metric odd sized. Could not find a back up for mine. I would eather tap it out and get a screw or send it back.

I used the screws that came with it, and pulled it out of the wall within 24 hours. By being a klutz and tripping against it! Replace the 1" screws with 1.5" and you'll be happy.

Not sure about that one, maybe trying WD 40 with the pointer to get near the thread of the screw. I would call company. I have also seen these fans in local drug stores. GOOD LUCK!

Do you have any of the same size screws that are missing? If so, I would take one and pick up the replacements at Home Depot or Lowe's. If not, then I would tape measure the hole, or better yet take a piece of paper and trace over the whole so that you get the width you need..then head on down to your local hardware store, where you should be able to get the replacement screws you need. Hope that helps!

The screw won't come out completely, once the screw just keeps spinning you should be able to grab the top edge and pull. I used my finger nail.

Now that you mention it, it was in there pretty tight. I did use the correct type of screwdriver to eventually open. Im looking at the screw that was rremoved and its stripped. I guess I will tread lightly next time the screw needs to be undone. This sounds like its a defect overall in the product workmanship. Good luck.

Small star bit, also once u tighten it I recommend covering the screw w a drop of superglue, after that u should be good,

Available, like on Amazon? Sure. You want to replace that screw anyways since it requires you to have a quarter in your pocket to un/tighten it. I got this one http://www.amazon.com/SmallRig-D-ring-Screw-Quick-Release/dp/B006GB5MDW/ref=pd_sim_p_20?ie=UTF8&refRID=1FMFCTB5XX16WCMB07RZ. I'm much happier.

I would suggest using some thread locker like this to keep that screw from coming loose over time: Loctite 38653 222 Purple Low Strength Thread Locker ... better safe than sorry..

Will, I used a tiny, tiny L shaped hex wrench that I found in my tool box. Not sure of the size. Sorry I'm not much help.

I received a response from the manufacturer: "It is a 1/4" x 20 pitch thread. Try a set screw. They hold much better over time."

I know that if you try and get a new one from Amazon, they will make you return the whole product and it's usually extra time and trouble. I would just take your one good screw to the hardware store and try and find a similar sized one.

I am not fluent in hardware speak, so I just took my screw to our local hardware store and told the man how much too long the screw was and he got me what I needed. Sorry I can't be more specific. I do love my cabinet handles!
