StarTech.com M5 x 12mm - Mounting Screws - 100 Pack

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

If you’re fitting a StarTech-style privacy filter frame (or generally doing any quick swap/replacement on wall/monitor filter hardware), this 100-pack of M5 x 12mm screws is the kind of boring item that saves hassle. At £29.88 ex-VAT, it’s not “cheap per screw” in the absolute sense, but you’re really paying for consistency and having enough spares for repeat installs and future maintenance. For an office IT reseller, break/fix techs, or AV fitters supporting multiple sites, that spares-in-the-bag approach is genuinely good value because it prevents delays when you discover you’re missing the right thread/length.

That said, I wouldn’t buy this blindly if you don’t already know your mounting hardware calls for M5 and a 12mm length. Screws are one of those things where the wrong size can cause wobble, poor bite, or—worst case—damage to the frame/underlying mount. Also, if you’re only doing a single installation and you have access to suitable spares locally, you’ll probably overpay versus buying a small mixed hardware pack. Best fit: teams doing recurring installs of StarTech privacy filter mounts (or equivalent that specifically take M5 x 12mm). If that’s not you, I’d hold off.
