Depends on the screw thread surely?

I use M3 pan or countersunk screws usually brass, depends on the socket 
some have countersunk/recess holes, on the chassis side a split washer 
and/or a grounding tag and an M3 nut to secure.

Dave,

It's 5/8-24, and not likely available at the hdwe store. For one thing, it
usually has to be very thin to work in bulkhead installations. The same
thread is used for N connectors, so ask around the local hams and see who
has a good junk box.

For Amphenol, it depends on whether it is a front-mount or rear-mount. 
Front-mount is 0.562 in. (9/16 in. or 14.3mm). Rear-mount is 0.750 in. (19mm).
