The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Socket Head Screw M6Xm8X10 12.9 designed for the GP3800A, GP4000, GP5600A, GPS5600A, GP6600A, and GPS6600A series portable generators. As a direct factory part, is manufactured to the exact grade 12.9 tensile specification required by the original design, ensuring the correct clamping force and shear resistance for the application. This screw is used across a wide range of GP and GPS generator configurations, including wheel-kit variants, electric-start models, and regional compliance builds (EPA, CARB, CSA, CAN GFI). Keep a verified OEM fastener on hand to maintain structural integrity during any generator service or reassembly.
Key Features
- Grade 12.9 High-Tensile Strength — Manufactured to the 12.9 property class, delivering the elevated shear and tensile load capacity required at this specific fastener location in the generator assembly.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part 5000162747 matches the exact thread pitch, head geometry, and material hardness specified for this application — no substitution guesswork.
- Socket Head Drive for Torque Accuracy — The internal hex socket head design allows precise torque application with a hex key or Allen driver, reducing the risk of rounding under load during installation or removal.
- Broad Generator Series Compatibility — Fits GP3800A, GP4000, GP5600A, GPS5600A, GP6600A, and GPS6600A portable generators across EPA, CARB, CSA, and CAN GFI configurations, including standard and wheel-kit variants.
- Correct Fastener Prevents Structural Failure — Using an under-spec fastener in a high-load generator application risks loosening, thread stripping, or catastrophic joint failure under vibration; the OEM grade 12.9 spec eliminates that risk.
A socket head cap screw (also called a socket head screw or Allen bolt) is a high-strength threaded fastener driven by an internal hex recess rather than an external wrench flat. In generator assemblies, grade 12.9 socket head screws are typically used in critical structural joints — such as engine mounting points, alternator brackets, or frame components — where vibration loads demand a fastener with high proof strength and reliable clamping force. When a fastener at this location loosens or fails, it can allow relative movement between major components, leading to misalignment, accelerated wear, or damage to the surrounding hardware. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM-spec part restores the joint to its original design condition.
