Samsung UN70TU6980 TV Wall Mount Adapters

[userC03GI95hxn]

I’m searching for a part number for the wall mount adapters for a UN70TU6980FXZA. Samsung support says they are needed but they are not included with the TV and they don’t offer them to sell. Doesn’t make sense at all. They claim it’s a standard hardware store item. Anyone run into this issue?

You should be able to find the parts you need at samsungparts.com

I checked there before and didn’t see anything under my model number.

The Samsung parts website doesn't offer a wall mount for several of their TV models 😕

The documentation for your model shows no additional hardware requires, aside from what is included in the wall mount kit.

Yeah I’ve noticed that. But since the screws fit loosely in the recessed mounting holes I thought the adapters are necessary. I asked Samsung about it and they told me they were required. I feel like using the screws without the adapters will cause the screws to bend since there is nothing to fill the gaps between the screws and the mounting holes.

If you do not show a tight fit as in the image, there should be washers included in the wall mount kit to provide a tighter fit.

I can get the screws tight no problem. I was more worried about the gaps between the screw threads and the housing of the TV. Maybe I'm just overthinking it.

There needs to be some open area there to allow for heat expansion and contraction.

I ended up just trying it out as shown in the manual... Seems to work just fine so far.
