The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Bolt M6 X 12 designed for the GV and GP series portable generators, including the GV3800A, GV5600A, GV6600A, GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, and GPS9700A. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this fastener meets the exact material grade, thread pitch, and dimensional tolerances specified for these machines. It is a direct replacement for the original hardware, requiring no modification to fit. Compatible across multiple GV and GP generator configurations, part number is the correct specification for both standard and 60Hz variants in this family.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware Grade — Manufactured to the exact M6 x 12 thread specification and tensile rating called out in the Wacker Neuson parts program, so torque values and clamping force remain consistent with the original build.
- Drop-In Thread Compatibility — Matches the threaded bores on GV and GP series generator housings and panels directly, with no re-tapping or bushing required.
- Broad Generator Family Coverage — A single part number covers GV3800A, GV5600A, GV6600A, GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, and GPS9700A units across standard and 60Hz configurations.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — Correct fastener grade prevents loosening under generator vibration, protecting panels, covers, and components from movement or misalignment during operation.
- Verified Wacker Neuson Part Number — Ordering by part number 5000171823 confirms you are receiving the correct bolt for this application, eliminating the guesswork of sourcing generic hardware substitutes.
A bolt may seem like a minor component, but in a portable generator, fasteners are responsible for holding critical panels, covers, and structural components securely in place under continuous engine vibration. An incorrectly sized or lower-grade substitute can work loose over time, leading to misaligned covers, exposed components, or damage to surrounding hardware. Using the correct OEM-specified Bolt M6 X 12 ensures the fastener performs to the clamping load the machine was designed around, keeping every secured assembly tight and properly positioned through the full service life of the generator.
