S-97498A127 M6 x 55 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 environments
• Enhanced installation efficiency through external hex head design providing secure tool engagement and reduced slippage
• Optimized wood holding power with thread forming design that creates stronger, more permanent connections in wood materials
• Reduced material splitting thanks to partially threaded shank design that minimizes stress concentration points
• Reliable dimensional consistency with M6 x 2.6 mm metric threading ensuring precise fit and predictable performance
• Quick penetration and alignment from pointed tip design that facilitates easier screw placement and starting
• Industry-standard compatibility with 10mm head width and 4mm height for universal tool accessibility

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These zinc-plated steel wood screws deliver exceptional performance in wood construction and assembly applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming design eliminates the need for pre-drilling in many wood types, creating stronger, more permanent connections by compressing wood fibers rather than removing them. The partially threaded configuration ensures maximum clamping force while minimizing the risk of wood splitting, making these M6 screws ideal for heavy-duty wood framing, furniture manufacturing, and structural wood connections. The external hex drive system provides superior torque transmission compared to Phillips or slotted drives, reducing cam-out incidents and installation time in production environments.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M6 x 2.6 mm pitch wood screw features a 55mm overall length with 33mm minimum thread length and complies with DIN 571 standards for dimensional accuracy and performance requirements. Manufactured from zinc-plated steel with external hex drive and partially threaded design, these screws meet RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations for environmental and safety standards. The thread forming tapping method ensures reliable performance in wood applications without requiring pre-tapped holes.
