GME AD006 Male 5/16" to Female M6 Antenna Thread Adaptor for SCANIA and IVECO A genuine antenna thread adaptor from GME, the AD006 converts a male 5/16" TPI antenna whip thread to a female M6 mount, designed for SCANIA and IVECO heavy vehicle antenna installations where the factory antenna mounting point uses M6 metric thread rather than the standard 5/16" TPI thread used by most GME antennas. Product overview The GME AD006 is a male 5/16" to female M6 antenna thread adaptor for use in SCANIA and IVECO heavy vehicle antenna installations. It allows standard 5/16" TPI GME antennas to be fitted to M6-thread antenna mounting points on these vehicles, bridging the thread size mismatch between GME's standard antenna whip range and the M6 mounting hardware used in certain heavy vehicle platforms. Features and benefits Male 5/16" to female M6 thread adaptor: One end accepts a standard 5/16" TPI antenna whip while the other end connects to an M6 female antenna mount. SCANIA and IVECO specific: Designed for the antenna mounting hardware used in SCANIA and IVECO heavy vehicle installations. Genuine GME accessory: A manufacturer-supplied adaptor ensuring correct fitment between the two thread standards.

Confirm use with other heavy vehicle brands before purchase by contacting us. Frequently asked questions What does male 5/16" to female M6 mean for the AD006?The adaptor has two threaded ends. The male 5/16" end has an external thread that screws into a standard 5/16" TPI antenna whip base, the thread standard used across most GME and compatible UHF CB antenna whips. The female M6 end has an internal M6 metric thread that screws onto an M6 male antenna mounting point on the vehicle, the factory antenna mount thread used on certain SCANIA and IVECO installations. The adaptor bridges these two different thread standards. Why do SCANIA and IVECO vehicles use M6 thread instead of 5/16" TPI?SCANIA and IVECO are European heavy vehicle manufacturers. M6 metric thread is common in European engineering standards, whereas 5/16" TPI is the Australian and American CB and UHF antenna market standard used by GME. The AD006 exists specifically to resolve this incompatibility on these platforms. Can the AD006 be used with other heavy vehicle brands?The AD006 is specified for SCANIA and IVECO. Other European or heavy vehicle brands may also use M6 antenna mounts, but compatibility beyond SCANIA and IVECO is not confirmed. Contact us before using the AD006 on other vehicle brands. Which GME antennas are compatible with the AD006?Any GME antenna whip that uses a standard male 5/16" TPI thread base is compatible, including the majority of GME's UHF CB and CB antenna range. Confirm your specific antenna uses 5/16" TPI thread before purchasing. Is the AD006 sold as a single piece or a pair?One adaptor is included per purchase.
