Base plate screw size ?

[screwpainting]

Hi, anyone know what the base plate screw size is for a Dewalt 621 router? I want to add a thicker base plate and the existing 10mm long screws are too short so I will need say 15mm instead. They measure about 3.5/4mm X 10mm but I cant tell what thread etc they are so if anyone actually knows the correct screw I would be most grateful.

Steve.

As far as i know 3.5 is only used on electrical fittings so it will be 4mm if you have a spare back box try one of your screws in the hole
My elu's have m4 threads ( earlier incarnations of the dewalt )

Cheers Ian, I'll give that a try, that would be dead handy.
