S-90252A116 Length 1 5/8" Wood Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced corrosion resistance with black-oxide steel coating for long-lasting performance in various environments
• Superior holding power in fiberboard and particleboard through thread forming technology that creates strong, permanent threads
• Clean, flush installation with standard flat head profile and 82° countersink angle for professional finishing
• Reduced splitting and material damage with pointed tip and recommended 5/64" drill bit for precise pilot holes
• Optimized thread engagement with 1.09" thread length and 11 TPI for maximum pull-out resistance in wood applications
• Secure driving control with No. 2 Phillips drive that minimizes cam-out during installation
• Versatile right-hand threading compatible with standard installation tools and techniques

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 8 wood screws are specifically engineered to address common challenges in fiberboard and particleboard applications where traditional fasteners often fail. The black-oxide steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining high tensile strength. The thread forming technology is particularly valuable for engineered wood products, as it compresses rather than cuts material fibers, creating stronger thread engagement without weakening the substrate. This is crucial for particleboard screws used in furniture manufacturing, cabinetry, and construction applications where pull-out resistance directly impacts product durability. The 82° countersink angle ensures heads sit flush with surfaces, preventing snagging while maintaining structural integrity. With partial threading and precise dimensional tolerances, these screws provide reliable performance in demanding wood fastening scenarios.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These wood screws feature inch system measurements with precise dimensional control, including head diameter tolerance of -0.04" for consistent performance. The thread forming tapping method and right-hand thread direction comply with industry standards for wood fasteners. Manufactured from quality steel with black-oxide surface treatment, these screws meet general industrial requirements for construction and woodworking applications. The specified drill bit size of 5/64" (0.078") ensures proper pilot hole preparation for optimal thread engagement and material preservation.
