Let \(b_6(n)\) denote the number of 6-regular partitions of n. In this article, we prove some new infinite families of congruences modulo 3 and some individual congruences modulo 9 for \(b_6(n)\) using 5-dissections of some q-products, two of the well-known forty identities for the Rogers-Ramanujan functions of Ramanujan, Newman’s identities and a method of Radu. In the process, we also deduce some Kolberg-type congruences.
