Mounting screw

[j1978]

Hi,
I am looking for a mounting screw similar to the one circled in the attached image. I have searched at Bauhaus, Krauta, Ikea, etc., and the closest I found is the one on the right, but it does not fit the nut as there is too much space between the threads.

The screw is 4.1 cm long. It belongs to a bunk bed from the brand Unipuu, which unfortunately is no longer manufactured. I have also searched for a nut that fits the right screw but have not found one.

Has anyone seen a similar screw or can suggest where I might be able to find it?

The one on the right looks like a wood screw, and the one on the left should be a machine thread if it's going into the socket. Shouldn't you be able to use a regular machine-threaded screw in the right dimensions? Do you need that specific shape of the screw?

The circled one is found in at least one IKEA furniture but not in a regular screw. Unfortunately, I can't remember which one, but I think it was a bed. With patience, you can go through a large number of assembly instructions and maybe find its spare part number and order it.

Can't you change the muttern?

Could this be something?

Yes, maybe, I'm simultaneously looking for another nut that fits the right screw with larger spacing between the threads.

Yes, it looks like the right thread dimension, but that screw only seems to be available in 30 mm, I need 40mm.

Yes unfortunately I need that shape for it to fit with the other parts to assemble the bed.

The circled one is in at least one IKEA piece of furniture but not a regular screw. Unfortunately, I can't remember which one, but I think it was a bed. With patience, you can go through a large number of assembly instructions, and maybe you'll find its spare part number and can order it.

Yes, that was my first thought and I found an IKEA screw I thought would work, but it was the wrong dimensions. But I will make another attempt there.

The IKEA screw is intended to be screwed into wood, so:

take a piece of dowel in a suitable dimension as a replacement for the "nut" and drill a suitable hole in it that fits the IKEA screw. You then have a "nut" made of wood that the screw can be fastened into.

Hi! I found this link, I have the same problem. A unipuu bunk bed, but not enough screws. Did the ones you bought fit? Do you have any left and want to sell?
