My washer purchases cover several metric sizes as well as inch hardware. This M6 pack is part of that range, with the roof projects providing context for the many small attachment details.
I bought M6 Stainless Flat Washers as part of my camper van equipment.

Comparing the Washer Footprint Within the M6 Group
I joined the roof-mount pieces with separate fastener groups.
Positioning the slot nuts affected how I brought the joints together.
My washer purchases included M6 flat disks and wider fender-washer options.
The profiles and joint hardware during my roof-mount assembly.The drilled connectors and fasteners joining my added extrusion to the roof rack.
My Takeaway from This Job
The hole-size grouping and the outside footprint describe different parts of the washer. The dedicated M6 pack, the wider black M6 disks and the multi-size Glarks box make those choices visible beside each other.
Compare the hole-size grouping and the outside footprint separately.

The exact retailer reference identifies these M6 washers with a twelve-millimeter outside diameter. That second dimension describes the contact footprint around the fastener hole. In a van bracket layout, compare that disk with the flat area on the part and include its thickness in the hardware stack. Keeping outside diameter with the nominal fastener size helps distinguish this pack from the wider fender-style washers and the separate M6 split-ring selection in my supplies.
These black M6 washers have an eighteen-millimeter outside diameter. Their wider disk gives a different contact footprint from a smaller M6 flat washer.
