Bolt Baks M6×12, hexagon screw M6x12, stainless/steel detail, MPN 650166

Baks M6×12 is a hexagon-head screw with an M6 metric thread and a 12 mm shank length, designed for general mechanical assembly, fittings and repair tasks where a compact M6 fastener is required. Manufactured in stainless/steel detail construction, this hexagon screw provides a combination of dimensional precision and straightforward installation using standard hex keys or sockets. The fastener is intended for use with corresponding M6 nuts, threaded inserts or tapped holes in metal and wood components.

Advantages

The hexagon head profile allows secure torque transfer and easy tightening with a wrench or socket. Stainless/steel material offers reliable strength for light- to medium-duty joints and reasonable resistance to wear. The standard M6 thread and 12 mm length make the screw compatible with a wide range of fittings, furniture assemblies and repair parts, simplifying parts selection and reducing the need for custom fasteners.

Suitable for

• Furniture assembly and repair
• Machinery maintenance and small equipment fixes
• Construction fixtures and metalwork fastening
• Woodworking joins using M6 threaded inserts
• General do‑it‑yourself projects requiring M6 bolts

Key specifications

• Head type: hexagon (hex) head for wrench or socket drive
• Thread: metric M6
• Length: 12 mm (shank length)
• Material: stainless/steel construction
• Drive compatibility: standard hex key or socket

How to use

Select a matching M6 nut, threaded insert or a component with an M6 tapped hole. Align the parts to be joined and insert the hexagon screw through the clearance hole or into the threaded bore. Use a correctly sized hex key, socket or wrench to tighten to the required torque for the application, taking care not to overtighten when fastening into softer materials such as wood. For improved joint security, combine with a washer or lock washer where appropriate.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate torque values for M6 stainless/steel fasteners to avoid thread damage; when fastening into wood, pre‑drill clearance and pilot holes to prevent splitting and ensure proper seating.
