S-97498A143 M8 x 60 mm DIN 571 Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for extended service life in demanding wood applications
• Exceptional holding power through thread-forming design that creates permanent, vibration-resistant connections in wood materials
• Optimized thread engagement with partial threading that concentrates gripping force where it's most effective
• High-torque installation capability thanks to the external hex head design that prevents tool slippage during driving
• Precision metric sizing with M8 diameter and 3.6mm pitch ensuring consistent performance and reliable fit
• Regulatory compliance assurance meeting DIN 571 standards plus RoHS 3 and REACH environmental requirements
• Versatile 60mm length providing sufficient penetration depth for secure fastening in various wood thicknesses

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M8 hex head wood screws deliver exceptional engineering value through their specialized thread-forming design and zinc-plated steel construction. The thread forming tapping method eliminates the need for pre-drilling in many wood applications while creating stronger, more permanent connections by compressing wood fibers rather than removing them. This results in superior pull-out resistance and vibration-proof fastening critical for structural wood assemblies, furniture manufacturing, and construction projects. The partially threaded shank ensures maximum clamping force by allowing the unthreaded portion to act as a precise positioning element, while the external hex drive provides reliable torque transmission for efficient installation with standard tools. The corrosion-resistant zinc plating protects against environmental factors, making these screws ideal for both interior and exterior wood applications where durability and long-term performance are essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance
