Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large) screw size

M6 · 6 to 10 mm long

Our records put Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large) on M6 screws in lengths from 6 to 10 mm.

The record covers CH01B universal tripod ball mount offered with M4 or M6 screw joint.

This entry is marked reported and comes from ydboffer.com.

An M6 screw is 6 mm in diameter with a 1 mm pitch, tapped with a 5 mm drill; imperial look-alike: 1/4in-20 (6.35 mm) — the tripod/camera thread; visibly larger than M6.

How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Where the manufacturer publishes a torque value, use a torque driver rather than feel.
  2. Diameter: across the threads an M6 screw measures about 6 mm with calipers (usually a hair under). If yours measures noticeably more or less, it is a different thread.
  3. Pitch: 1 mm from one thread crest to the next (10 crests per centimetre). A thread pitch gauge or the pitch-gauge tool settles it in seconds.
  4. Length: measure from under the head to the tip for pan, button, wafer and cap heads; countersunk (flat) heads are measured overall.
  5. The records span 6–10 mm, which means different positions take different lengths — match each hole to its own screw.
  6. Driver: the source does not name the drive. Standard M6 heads take PH3 for Phillips and T30 for Torx, and a 5 mm hex key for socket heads; a bit that fits loosely will cam out and strip the head.
  7. Tightening: no device-specific torque is published in these records. The site's general figure for M6 is about 7-10 N·m into metal threads and 2.5-4.0 N·m into plastic bosses; snug it up and stop.

Common mix-ups with M6

  • Mic stand threads (5/8-27) and tripod threads (1/4-20, 3/8-16) are imperial, not metric — only accessory clips like Gravity's M6 adapter are genuinely M6.
  • The same StarTech universal projector mount ships with M3, M4, M5, and M6 screw sets simultaneously so the installer can pick whichever matches the projector's own threaded inserts — metric size is projector-dependent, not mount-dependent.

Questions about Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large) screws

What size screw does Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large) use?
M6 × 6–10 mm for CH01B universal tripod ball mount offered with M4 or M6 screw joint.
How long are the screws in Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large)?
The records range from 6 to 10 mm depending on the position, so match each screw to its own hole.
What is the thread pitch of an M6 screw?
1 mm (coarse), which is the standard pitch for M6 machine screws; a 0.75 mm fine pitch exists but is uncommon. The tap drill is 5 mm and the normal clearance hole is 6.6 mm.
What screwdriver do I need for Dashcam suction mount ball joint (large)?
The sources do not name the drive. For M6, Phillips heads normally take PH3 and Torx heads T30; socket heads take a 5 mm hex key.
Can I use an imperial screw instead of M6?
No. Imperial look-alike: 1/4in-20 (6.35 mm) — the tripod/camera thread; visibly larger than M6. Use a true M6 screw so it does not cross-thread or strip the hole.
