Blown your budget by so much that you can't afford to buy an extra 12 screws then?

Doesn't show the PB-4000 on the compatibility list.....

Says ISO-Elastomer feet are included with the Sub (must be factory installed, as user manual/quick-start makes no mention of fitting them).....

I must be blind LOL, didn't see that before

 

[Bilbo 69]

Lol it’s not about buying screws I just need to know the correct size of screw before I make the feet because the screw is moulded into the feet

Yes it does, and specifies 6 feet are needed

The manual states 1/4 thread size bolts

Hi I am aware it needs six feet I just need the screw size ????

 

[Bilbo 69]

The manual states 1/4 thread size bolts

That must be a M6 then??

I wasn't quoting you.

It's probably an imperial size so no, it won't be M6.

I'm sure I read somewhere that someone tried m6 feet on the SVS subs and they were a bit tight, so might have to find 1/4-20mm thread as per the SVS info

Precisely that, they're different threads.

Yeah I no you weren’t dodge sorry if it came across that way.

No worries, I sense your need to get this sorted

 

[DodgeTheViper]

If I had that size of bolt kicking around and in the packet so I knew the size, I'd try it out for you. The manual does state this size though.

If I was going to B&Q I'd buy a pack of bolts that size to check for you.

 

[Bilbo 69]

Thanks for everyone’s help
I’m going to message svs on Twitter and see if I can get any info there too.

It's definitely 1/4-20 thread, this is part of a post from Ed Mullen-SVS.

That’s great thanks for that.

Just as the manual says

 

[shotokan101]

...and the linked info.......

Be aware there are 2 thread sizes for 1/4" screws. The ones you want have 20 threads per inch and are referred to as UNC (unified coarse) as supposed to UNF (unified fine) which have 28 threads per inch.

Here's some suitable stainless steel screws in assorted lengths: 1/4-20 Hex Head Machine Screws
