Phanteks 200mm fan screws

[Neonlites]

I have bought a Phanteks PH-F200SP_200mm Fan as an top exhaust for my enthoo luxe case, trouble is the screws are far too fat for the holes this fan lines up with.

Did anyone else have this problem and did you manage to solve it?

Are those 'screws' actually screws or are they bolts? Usually the shorter fat screws are used to mount a fan case going through a mounting hole or grill hole and screwing into the fan.
Small mounting (as in thin, not short and fat) bolts (much finer thread then a screw has) would go through the fan to the mounting holes in the case.

Worth contacting both Phanteks and the case manufacture and find out what length, size (thickness of the bolt shaft) and thread type is needed for those mounting holes: They might send you some, or, with that information, a decent hardware store should have them.

Thank you for replying, they are short fat screws, but no-way do they fit the holes the fan aligns to, if I use a thinner screw it will fit the hole but won't hold the fan,
I have been in touch with Phanteks about it, I have also included a photo of the screw in relation to the hole, so we will see.
