Stainless steel hex head screw mm 6×20 – code: VTSE6X20

Stainless steel hex head screw 6×20 (VTSE6X20)

La hex head stainless steel screw code VTSE6X20 is a fastening element designed for machining and assembly where reliability, order in installation, and practical management in maintenance are needed. The size 6×20 and the hexagonal head makes it suitable for typical technical hardware, plant engineering, and onboard applications, where it is important to be able to tighten and disassemble with common tools and with easy access to the head.

Material: stainless steel

Made of stainless steel, it is indicated for contexts where a screw with good suitability for use in technical environments potentially exposed to humidity is desired. Stainless steel material is commonly chosen to reduce typical corrosion problems compared to screws made of unprotected materials.

Hex head

La hexagonal head is a practical geometry for tightening and loosening: it allows a firm action with wrenches or sockets and facilitates maintenance interventions when it is necessary to retighten or replace components. It is a common solution in hardware and plant engineering because it allows simple control during assembly.

Size 6×20

The size 6×20 identifies the main dimensions of the screw. It is a very commonly used cut for fastening components, brackets, accessories, and small parts in technical fields. For a correct choice, it is always advisable to check compatibility with the hole, any nut, or threading present in the component to be fastened.

Codes and product identification

• Product code (Supplier product code): VTSE6X20
• SKU: MOLIN00000101
• Supplier: F.LLI MOLINO SRL

Typical applications

• Assemblies and fixings of mechanical components and onboard accessories.
• Installation and maintenance of brackets, supports, and small parts in technical areas.
• Restoration interventions where it is necessary to replace existing screws with a stainless steel solution.
• Plant engineering and workshop machining where the hex head facilitates tightening.

For specific applications (loads, vibrations, particular couplings, or very aggressive environments), it is good practice to evaluate the entire fastening assembly: type of material to be joined, presence of washers, any locking, and operating conditions.

Checks before installation

• Dimensional check: make sure that the 6×20 size is the one required by the fastening point.
• Thread coupling: check compatibility with the nut or thread present in the component.
• Maneuvering space: the hex head requires minimal access for wrench/socket.

General good practices

• Ordered assembly: use appropriate tools to avoid damage to the head.
• Surface protection: in the presence of delicate materials, consider using washers (if provided by the design) to distribute the tightening.
• Maintenance: in contexts subject to vibrations or work cycles, provide for periodic tightening checks according to plant procedures.

Note: If you need a precise match with nuts/washers or with an existing component, it is advisable to check the specification required by your plant or send us a reference of the part to be replaced.
