Shimano brake pad retaining screw size?

Lou_m

Does anyone know the size of the brake pad retaining screw for shimano road pads? I would like to be able to get some slightly longer ones for another application but need to know what width and tread pitch etc. Cheers.

According to Shimano tech docs the ones on a 5800 caliper are "fixing bolt M4 x 5.5"

Same on a few other calipers I looked at so likely they are all the same

That's great, cheers!
