Since its simply passage of current through the coil that creates a magnetic field to pull that plunger down, 6 volts will likely still create a strong enough field to engage it BUT I CANT GUARANTEE THAT it depends on the return spring pressure etc etc. Likewise, if its a 6 volt solenoid and you apply 12 volts you can bet that will engage the plunger and so long as the time period is brief I doubt the extra current will overheat or burn up the coil windings BUT AGAIN NO GUARANTEE. I'm talkin basic theory here and without specific detailed specs and data one just cant say EXACTLY how long or how well these variations will work/last. Its the kind of thing Ive done for years on the farm with no problem but I dont want to be blamed if farmer Billy Bob does it and burns up a solenoid. Being both an engineer and lawyer is a curse sometimes lol lol
