This Oil Pan Screw Small Oil Pan M6120 is a critical, precision-engineered fastener designed for securing the oil pan to the engine block in various automotive applications. Manufactured to exacting OEM specifications, this screw ensures a perfect, leak-proof seal for the small oil pan, safeguarding your engine’s vital lubrication system. The designation M6120 clearly indicates its metric thread specifications: an M6 diameter with a fine 1mm pitch, providing excellent clamping force and vibration resistance, and a 20mm length optimal for the assembly thickness of many compact and small engine oil pans.

Crafted from high-grade steel and often featuring a durable zinc or chrome plating, this screw offers superior corrosion resistance, protecting it from degradation caused by engine oils, temperature fluctuations, and road contaminants. Its precise thread form guarantees smooth installation and a secure, consistent torque when used with the correct sealing washer or gasket. Using the correct fastener like this is paramount; an improper screw can lead to stripped threads, oil leaks, or even damage to the oil pan itself, resulting in costly repairs.

Ideal for repair shops, professional mechanics, and discerning DIY enthusiasts, this oil pan screw is an essential component for engine maintenance, rebuilds, and oil pan replacement projects. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle make, model, and engine type prior to installation. Ensure the sealing surface is clean and use a calibrated torque wrench to achieve the manufacturer’s specified torque value for a reliable, long-lasting seal.
