Pair M8 with the matching M8 bolt or screw, plus a M8 flat washer where required to distribute load on softer materials.
When to Step Up or Down from M8
When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M8 class 8.8, step up to M10 class 8.8 (or move to M8 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M6 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.
