The package includes several screw types for mounting and securing the piBrick hardware. Identify each screw by its size and intended use before assembly.
| Screw Size | Intended Use |
|---|---|
| M2.0 × 10 mm | Fastening the enclosure |
| M1.7 × 5 mm | Securing the battery holder, Speaker-IO, and display/keyboard holder |

Important: Use the correct screw for each mounting point. Do not force a screw into a hole or overtighten it, as this may damage the enclosure, PCB, or mounted components.
