Pretty much all screws in IBM equipment are metric sized. Just remember
5.5, 8, 10, and 13mm, and you'll be able to remove most screws in IBM

If you're talking about those hex-head

simple: Snap-On Tools! :-) I just pulled a 5.5mm nutdriver out
of my toolbox, and it fits the screw head quite nicely, and
that's one of the recessed ones.
Is it 5.5mm, or 7/32"?
