Mounting LCD screen to truss totems

[Unknown DJ]

Hey Drewbdo, I have global truss mount with 46" sony lcd, but was wondering what kind of screw do you use to hold it down. I wasn't able to find the exact size in the sony manual. I want to get the right size but not too long of a screw.

TV's use a Vesa mount. i think the screw size is M8.

Hey sin303,

I don't have any truss yet. I have only used the TV once, and I set it on a table right in front of the DJ booth. I bought the TV for the house, but figured it was a nice enough unit, I would offer it to my customers.

If you have the manual, or can look up the model number on the Sony website, I think the screw specs should be listed. Either that, or go to Lowe's/Home Depot, and buy a couple of different lengths and test to find the right fit. However, if you can find the manufacturer's information, I would definitely use that for screw selection. Good luck!
