How to check the screw before you buy
- Outdoor hardware should be stainless or coated to stop corrosion seizing it in place.
- 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.
- 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.
- Length: for socket cap screws, measure from under the head to the tip (countersunk heads are the exception: they are measured overall).
- The record states 20 mm. Going longer risks bottoming out or touching parts behind the hole; going shorter loses thread engagement.
- 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.
- 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
- VESA display mounts are M4, M6 or M8 depending on the pattern size; measure before ordering.
- Trailer license plate mounts frequently use 1/4 inch screws in the US, but international and many modern bracket kits have shifted to M6.

- The record gives 20 mm. Measure the original from under the head (overall for a countersunk head) to confirm before ordering.
- 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.
