S60X6 Thread Explained

“S” – Stands for Sägengewinde, the German word for buttress thread (translates as “saw tooth thread”). Buttress threads are commonly used in applications requiring high strength and resistance to axial loads, making them ideal for industrial containers and drums due to their robust sealing properties and durability.

“60” – Refers to the nominal outside diameter of the thread, measured in millimetres (60 mm).

“6” – Indicates the thread pitch, i.e., the distance between threads, which is 6 mm.

Standard – This thread form is widely used in the IBC and drum industry, following the German standard DIN 6131 (SK 20-60), which has been succeeded by BS EN 12713. These standards ensure compatibility and safety across containers and fittings used in the IBC and drum industry, helping manufacturers and users meet essential regulatory requirements.
