S-97498A124 M6 x 40 mm DIN 571 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for extended service life in demanding wood applications
• Enhanced driving torque capability through external hex head design providing secure tool engagement and reduced cam-out
• Optimized wood holding power with thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads without pre-drilling in most wood types
• Reduced wood splitting risk through partially threaded shank design that minimizes stress concentration
• Precision thread engagement with M6 x 2.6mm pitch configuration ensuring reliable fastening in wood substrates
• Industry-standard compatibility meeting DIN 571 specifications for consistent performance and interchangeability
• Environmental compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH compliance for safe, regulated use in professional applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M6 hex head wood screws deliver exceptional engineering value through their specialized thread forming design and zinc-plated steel construction. The external hex drive provides superior torque transmission compared to conventional screw heads, preventing stripping during high-torque installation in dense hardwoods or structural applications. The partially threaded configuration creates a clamping effect that pulls wood components tightly together while minimizing the risk of material splitting. With 2.6mm pitch threading optimized for wood fibers, these screws develop maximum holding power without requiring pre-tapped holes, significantly reducing installation time in construction, furniture assembly, and woodworking projects. The corrosion-resistant zinc plating ensures long-term performance even in environments with moderate moisture exposure.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M6 wood screw features precise metric dimensions including 40mm length, 10mm hex head width, and 24mm minimum thread length. Manufactured to DIN 571 standards with right-hand threading and pointed tip for easy starting. The screw meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations for environmental safety. The thread forming design creates mating threads in wood without chip removal, providing secure fastening in various wood types from softwoods to engineered wood products.
