How to check the screw before you buy

  1. Take one original screw out first and measure it before ordering; the record above tells you the thread, the original screw tells you the exact length and head.
  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 record states 20 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
  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

  • Hygienic/3-A food-industry M6 screws are a distinct fastener class (with integrated sealing gasket/washer) from standard DIN 912 M6 socket-head screws; substituting a plain DIN 912 M6 screw on food/sanitary equipment breaks the hygienic seal even though the thread is nominally the same size.
