Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓The Steam Deck LCD uses a variety of different screw types, lengths, and sizes. Use this guide if you need to source a replacement screw or need help identifying small differences between screws.
Check out our Steam Deck teardown for more details.
Note: For replacement procedures, we list the entire screw length (threads, shank, and head together) as a reference to help people figure out which screws go where. This isn't the normal, technical way to measure screws, but it can be useful for new fixers. Instead, this guide dives into the nitty-gritty technical information: thread diameter, thread pitch, thread length, head diameter, and head thickness.

2 Guide Comments
Is there a way to convert these sizes to the ones used in the rest of the guides?
such as: M1.6x4= 4.7mm
you need to update this for the oled screw sizes and include they are torx
