About the Screw M6x16 Cheese Head Hex Key
This is a Bossard M6 x 16 mm cheese head screw with a hex key drive, listed against DIN 912 and the equivalent ISO 4762, plus Bossard’s own BN 612 and the PN 82302 reference. DIN 912 / ISO 4762 covers the cylindrical socket head cap screw: a straight-sided head driven by an internal hexagon rather than by an external wrench flat, which lets the head be counterbored flush into a component and driven in a confined space. The drive size for this screw is a 5 mm hex key. Head dimensions are 10 mm diameter by 6 mm high, and the thread is M6 with a 1 mm coarse pitch. The material is A4 acid-resistant austenitic stainless steel, the molybdenum-bearing grade normally specified in preference to A2 where chloride exposure is expected. Ordered as a screw m6x16 1 head cheese, the part is the socket-head form rather than a hexagon-head bolt of the same thread and length.

Typical applications
A short M6 socket head screw in A4 is a general structural and equipment fixing used on brackets, machined housings, mounting plates, clamp blocks and enclosure hardware. The 16 mm length suits thin plate stacks and tapped blind holes rather than deep through-bolted joints. The socket drive is preferred where the head must sit inside a counterbore or where access is too tight for a spanner, and the A4 material makes it a sensible default for marine, coastal and wash-down installations.
