What is the recommended bolt size for a TV wall mount installation?

Answer 1

When I mounted my TV at home, I had the same question, especially since I was working with a 65 Inch TV Wall Mount. The recommended bolt size often depends on the VESA pattern of your TV and the type of wall you’re mounting it on.

For most 65-inch TVs, the standard bolts are usually M8 screws, and their length can vary depending on the thickness of your wall bracket and whether you’re mounting into drywall with studs or directly into concrete/brick. In my case, I used M8 x 45mm screws, which worked perfectly with the provided spacers and bracket.

That said, I’d always suggest double-checking your TV’s manual, because manufacturers sometimes specify the exact bolt size needed for safe installation. If you’re unsure, a mounting kit for a 65 Inch TV Wall Mount usually comes with multiple screw sizes, so you’ll have options on hand.

Answer 2

The recommended bolt size for a TV wall mount installation is typically M8 or 5/16 inch in diameter.
