Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 14 brass wood screws are engineered to address common challenges in woodworking, such as material splitting, corrosion, and inconsistent fastening. The thread forming tapping method eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, saving time in high-volume assembly while providing superior thread engagement. The rounded head with Phillips drive ensures flush mounting without surface damage, ideal for furniture, cabinetry, and decorative woodwork. Made from durable brass, these screws resist oxidation and galvanic corrosion, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. The partially threaded design concentrates holding power at the tip, reducing stress on the wood fibers and minimizing cracking in hardwoods and softwoods alike.
