Screws & spacers for the UN65AU8000
The UN65AU8000 takes M8 bolts: M8 per Samsung owner's manuals (thread not stated on this spec sheet); 2021+ Samsung guides list shallower 11-13 mm hole depths than 2020 models - hand-test length. A bolt longer than the documented spec can bottom out against internal components and damage the panel — thread a screw in by hand first and confirm it seats before mounting the TV.
If your mount's hardware kit doesn't include the right length, a universal TV hardware kit covers M4–M8 in common lengths. More detail in the screw size guide.

Double-check before buying
- Remove any plastic hole plugs on the back panel and confirm all 4 threaded holes are present and undamaged.
- Measure hole spacing center-to-center in millimeters — you should get 400 mm across and 300 mm vertically.
- Compare the model number on the back-panel sticker with the one on this page (UN65AU8000) — retail variants can differ.
How to verify yourself
- Lay the TV screen-down on a soft, flat surface and locate the 4 threaded holes on the back.
- Measure horizontally between the centers of the upper holes, then vertically between an upper and a lower hole — in millimeters.
- Match the two numbers to a standard pattern (for the UN65AU8000: 400×300 mm). Full walkthrough with photos of what to avoid: how to measure VESA.
Frequently asked questions
What VESA pattern does the Samsung UN65AU8000 use?
The Samsung UN65AU8000 uses a 400×300 mm VESA pattern — 400 mm between hole centers horizontally and 300 mm vertically (about 15.7×11.8 in). Any bracket whose supported range covers 400×300 mm will line up. Confirm on the back panel before ordering, since retail variants of a series occasionally differ.
What size screws does the UN65AU8000 need for wall mounting?
The UN65AU8000 takes M8 metric screws. Documented length: M8 per Samsung owner's manuals (thread not stated on this spec sheet); 2021+ Samsung guides list shallower 11-13 mm hole depths than 2020 models - hand-test length. A bolt that is too long can bottom out and damage the panel or internals, so verify thread depth on the UN65AU8000 with a hand-tightened test screw before torquing anything down.
How much does the UN65AU8000 weigh without the stand?
The UN65AU8000 weighs 46.1 lb (20.9 kg) without the stand or cables. For a 20% safety margin, pick a mount rated for at least 60 lb. Anchoring matters as much as the rating: at this weight, one properly hit stud is usually enough, but follow your mount's instructions.
Will a 600×400 mount fit the UN65AU8000?
A bracket sold as 600×400-only will not line up with the UN65AU8000's 400×300 mm holes. Most 600×400 mounts, however, support a range of patterns — if the spec sheet lists 400×300 mm, it fits directly. If not, a VESA adapter plate (400×300→600×400) bridges the difference; see our adapter guide.
What replacement remote works with the UN65AU8000?
Samsung Voice Remote (TM2180A) (part BN59-01363C) is the matching remote for the UN65AU8000. Voice remote of the TM2180A family. Designated by OEM parts dealers for the AU8000 line; aftermarket listings also sell BN59-01363A and BN59-01350C/F as compatible - match the part number printed inside your remote's battery bay. Order by the part number rather than by TV size — one remote covers the whole platform.
Can the UN65AU8000 be mounted on a full-motion bracket?
Yes. At 46.1 lb, the UN65AU8000 is within range of full-motion arms rated 60 lb or higher — 3 full-motion mount(s) in our database clear it. Articulating arms add leverage on the wall, so stud anchoring per the mount manufacturer's instructions is more important than with fixed brackets.
