Screws & spacers for the KD-55X80K
The KD-55X80K takes M6 bolts: Sony's 2022 bracket chart: screw length 8-12 mm from the bracket attachment surface; M6 thread - confirm in your manual. 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.
Standing the KD-55X80K on furniture instead?
The KD-55X80K's legs span 41.9 in — it fits consoles at least 44 in wide, so both feet sit fully on the surface with a safety margin.
Furniture narrower than 44 in? A universal pedestal stand bolts into the same 300×300 mm VESA holes (M6 screws) and stands on a single center column — the usual fix instead of replacing the console. Check its weight rating against the KD-55X80K's 35.1 lb.

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 300 mm across and 300 mm vertically.
- Compare the model number on the back-panel sticker with the one on this page (KD-55X80K) — 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 KD-55X80K: 300×300 mm). Full walkthrough with photos of what to avoid: how to measure VESA.
Frequently asked questions
What VESA pattern does the Sony KD-55X80K use?
The Sony KD-55X80K uses a 300×300 mm VESA pattern — 300 mm between hole centers horizontally and 300 mm vertically (about 11.8×11.8 in). Any bracket whose supported range covers 300×300 mm will line up. Confirm on the back panel before ordering, since retail variants of a series occasionally differ.
What size screws does the KD-55X80K need for wall mounting?
The KD-55X80K takes M6 metric screws. Documented length: Sony's 2022 bracket chart: screw length 8-12 mm from the bracket attachment surface; M6 thread - confirm in your manual. A bolt that is too long can bottom out and damage the panel or internals, so verify thread depth on the KD-55X80K with a hand-tightened test screw before torquing anything down.
How much does the KD-55X80K weigh without the stand?
The KD-55X80K weighs 35.1 lb (15.9 kg) without the stand or cables. For a 20% safety margin, pick a mount rated for at least 45 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 400×400 mount fit the KD-55X80K?
A bracket sold as 400×400-only will not line up with the KD-55X80K's 300×300 mm holes. Most 400×400 mounts, however, support a range of patterns — if the spec sheet lists 300×300 mm, it fits directly. If not, a VESA adapter plate (300×300→400×400) bridges the difference; see our adapter guide.
How far apart are the legs on the KD-55X80K?
The KD-55X80K's feet span about 41.9 in across the outside edges. A console at least 44 in wide lets both feet sit fully on the surface. Narrower furniture calls for a pedestal stand that bolts into the 300×300 mm VESA holes.
What replacement remote works with the KD-55X80K?
Sony Bravia Voice Remote (2022) (part RMF-TX800U) is the matching remote for the KD-55X80K. Bluetooth/IR voice remote with mic button for Google TV (Sony part 1-013-691-22). OEM parts dealers explicitly list every X80K size (43-75 in) as originally shipping with this remote. Order by the part number rather than by TV size — one remote covers the whole platform.
Can the KD-55X80K be mounted on a full-motion bracket?
Yes. At 35.1 lb, the KD-55X80K is within range of full-motion arms rated 45 lb or higher — 5 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.
