Arctic Cat M6 headlight bulbs utilize 894 size for high beam and 893 size for low beam applications. Replacement chart data spans 2005 through 2011 production years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Arctic Cat M6 uses the 894 bulb for the high beam headlight and the 893 bulb for the low beam headlight across the 2005-2011 model years.
Both the 894 and 893 are ANSI-standardized bulb types recognized in the United States and Canada, each operating at 12 volts and 37.5 watts with a single-filament halogen construction.
Although the 894 and 893 share identical voltage and wattage ratings, they are not interchangeable. The 894 uses a PGJ13 base, while the 893 uses a PGJ19 base, making the two physically incompatible with each other's sockets.
The PGJ13 and PGJ19 base designations refer to prefocus-type bases, a design that positions the filament at a fixed point relative to the base to ensure consistent light projection within the headlight housing.
Single-filament construction means each bulb in the Arctic Cat M6 (2005-2011) serves only one lighting function, which is why separate bulb types are specified for the high and low beam circuits rather than a single dual-filament unit.
The 37.5-watt output applies equally to both the 894 and 893, placing them in a lower wattage category relative to many standard automotive headlight bulbs, which commonly operate at 55 watts or higher.
