Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this M6x17mm hex head cap screw utilizes Aluminum 6061, a precipitation-hardened alloy renowned for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, good corrosion resistance, and moderate mechanical properties. Exhibiting a yield strength of approximately 240 MPa and tensile strength around 290 MPa, it is suitable for applications where weight reduction and resistance to environmental degradation are critical. The M6 thread standard ensures compatibility with metric fastening systems, while the 17mm length provides adequate grip for a variety of joint thicknesses. The 15mm hex head width is optimized for standard tooling, facilitating efficient installation and removal.
This component strictly adheres to the tolerances, material specifications, and quality benchmarks set by the world's leading industrial manufacturers.
1. Ensure mating threads are clean and free from debris. 2. Hand-thread the screw initially to verify alignment and prevent cross-threading. 3. Tighten the screw using a calibrated torque wrench to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification for Aluminum 6061.
