It accepts a 6-32 internal thread and installs via an M6 x 1.00 external thread, making it suitable for applications that bridge inch and metric thread standards. Manufactured from C12L14 carbon steel with a smooth, rolled finish, this insert measures 0.2559 inches overall length (6.50 mm). Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians install these inserts using a standard tap to prepare the receiving hole before driving the insert into place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is used in light to medium-duty metal assemblies where a permanent, vibration-resistant threaded connection is required. The standard wall design suits applications in structural brackets, enclosures, machinery frames, and similar components where hole wall thickness is sufficient to accommodate a full-thread engagement. The 6-32 internal thread accommodates standard inch-series machine screws, while the M6 x 1.00 external thread installs into a metrically tapped receiving hole, offering flexibility in mixed-thread assembly environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 internal thread with 2B class of fit for reliable inch-series fastener engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eM6 x 1.00 external thread with 2A class of fit for installation into a metric-tapped hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC12L14 carbon steel construction provides strength and machinability in standard-load applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard wall design installs using a standard tap  -  no specialty tooling required\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSmooth, rolled finish on external thread surface for consistent installation torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 0.2559 inch (6.50 mm) length suits tight-clearance assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style thread repair and thread conversion insert for metal assemblies requiring a 6-32 internal thread installed via a standard M6 x 1.00 tapped hole.

Before installation, prepare the receiving hole with a standard M6 x 1.00 tap to the depth specified for full thread engagement. Drive the insert using the appropriate E-Z LOK installation tool to avoid cross-threading or over-driving. Ensure all chips and debris are cleared from the tapped hole before inserting to maintain proper thread engagement and holding strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M6 x 1.00\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC, UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2559 inches (6.50 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C12L14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Thread Class of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExternal Thread Class of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type Required\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating \/ Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Smooth, Rolled\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0016 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: E-Z LOK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 550-006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"E-Z LOK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67909792825650,"sku":"550-006","price":24.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0e1f6f4d1a9e8c4b2483fe6d679401c8.jpg?v=1791192661","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/e-z-lok-550-006-thread-locking-insert-6-32-internal-m6-x-1","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
