Availability Of M6 Nuts To Go With Thule Tamperproof Screw 853-5269  

Published 12/16/2025

Question:

Hi, I am looking for nuts to accompany the screws for the Thule Universal Rooftop Ski and Snowboard carrier, model 91725u. I currently have 2x screws part 853-5269 in my cart. Is there any chance you have these? Thanks in advance for your help. Best, John

Hello John, thanks for reaching out. We do carry the Thule replacement screws # 853-5269, but Thule does not list a separate replacement nut that pairs specifically with that screw for the 91725U carrier. We do offer M6 nylock nuts like part # RR69TB, which match the thread size, but since they are lock nuts they aren’t ideal if you plan to remove and reinstall the carrier frequently.

If you prefer something easier to work with, a local hardware store will have standard M6 nuts that are compatible with the screw size. Just make sure to choose a stainless or zinc coated option so it holds up well in outdoor use.
