VESA tv mounting help

dublin6 · 26-04-2016, 19:07

Can anyone help me with this?

40" TV - website states VESA 150x100 which seems very small for large tv. But it's only 10kg so maybe.

Anyway...which are the VESA holes - a lot to choose from - I need to get a tilt bracket, but any brackets saying 150x100 seem to be for small televisions...

Thanks

Measure them 100mm x 150mm

As I said..a lot to choose from.
And it may not even be 150x100.

Any ideas on which are the VESA holes in the photo?

At a rough guess I would say they are the two holes just above to top label and the two just below the bottom label.

Easy enough to tell as the mounting holes will be threaded. The other holes are for the case screws so if you look carefully you should see a screw head at the bottom of the hole.

They would appear to be the four around the white labels in the middle, as Chris mentioned they will most probably be the only threaded holes there.

The small weight of modern TV's mean they don't tend to have massive mounting points any more.

thanks lads. I had thought that but someone had said to me that the bottom 2 looked different than the top 2 as they looked reinforced...

The manual should tell you. Also, as above, there will only be one set of holes which are 150 X 100mm apart.

Also look at universal brackets, ones that are compatible with vesa and non vesa dimensions.

For example........

It might just be as simple as what is hidden behind the back panel of the telly. I wouldn't be too concerned about them being different in appearance. The mounting points will be the only threaded holes on a 150x100 grid so there should be no doubt as to what is what.
