    The screws on the four corners of the Toughbook CF-19 is what I am looking to by. I am looking for a minimum of 12 all the same size (there are two different types, the two for the handle and the two for the other two corners).

    I am building a mounting block for three devices for members of the Forest Service group I belong to and these screws are required.

    The screws measure: Front 3 x .5 x 8.2mm (length including head) Back 3 x .5 x 4.5mm (length including head). Too hard to measure threaded portion only with my ancient eyes. My go to supplier for small metrics is: Bolt Depot - Nuts and Bolts, Screws and Fasteners online
    They have a great selection, stainless, allan head, etc and will ship any quantity you like.
