S-90294A303 Length 2 1/2" Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in humid or outdoor wood applications
• Enhanced driving efficiency with Phillips No. 3 drive that reduces cam-out and provides secure installation
• Optimal flush mounting thanks to the standard 82° flat head profile that sits perfectly countersunk in wood surfaces
• Reduced wood splitting through thread forming design that displaces material rather than removing it
• Maximum holding power achieved with partial threading that concentrates grip in the engagement zone
• Precision material compatibility with specified drill bit sizes for both hardwood (1/8") and softwood (7/64") applications
• Reliable industrial compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH environmental standards for safe usage

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel wood screws are engineered to address common fastening challenges in woodworking and construction applications. The thread forming design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes while preventing wood splitting in both hardwood and softwood materials. The partial threading configuration provides concentrated holding power where it matters most, reducing installation time while maintaining structural integrity. The Phillips flat head design ensures flush mounting for aesthetic finishes in furniture, cabinetry, and architectural woodwork. With corrosion-resistant properties, these screws deliver reliable performance in environments where moisture exposure would compromise ordinary fasteners, making them ideal for outdoor structures, marine applications, and high-humidity interior spaces.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 12 x 2-1/2" wood screw features a 0.216" thread diameter with 11 threads per inch in a right-hand direction. The screw maintains standard inch system tolerances with a minimum thread length of 1.667" and partial threading configuration. Manufacturing complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe industrial usage without hazardous substances. The thread forming tapping method and standardized dimensions provide consistent performance across wood fastening applications.
