980343 Six Point Socket Screw | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta six point socket screw weighing 0.025 kg and listed for a single application on the TAD series. The internal six-point drive is what sets it apart from the flange and hexagon screws elsewhere in this run; no thread size or length is published, so match the old fastener.

🚤 Compatibility

Typically suits:

• Volvo Penta TAD1170-72VE

• Engine Family: TAD

⚙️ Key Features

• 0.025 kg
• Listed for one application on the TAD series
• Internal six point drive
• Thread and length are not published - order by part number

🔌 Function

Clamps a joint where there is no room for a spanner, the recessed six-point socket in the head taking a key or bit instead.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Socket in the head rounded out so a key will no longer grip
• Socket packed with paint, dirt or corrosion, giving a partial grip
• Joint loose or the screw backed out
• Thread picked up or seized on removal

🛠️ Service Notes

• Clean the socket out fully and drive the key square - most of these heads are ruined by a partly seated tool
• Renew a screw whose socket has begun to round rather than fitting it again

📦 Condition

• Genuine Volvo Penta part
• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
