• Flush, professional finish achieved with standard flat head profile and 82° countersink angle for seamless wood surfaces
• Full-thread engagement along the 5/8" length ensures maximum grip and pull-out resistance in wood materials
• Optimized for wood applications with pointed tip for easy starting and 11 threads per inch for balanced holding strength
• Precise dimensional consistency with controlled head diameter tolerance ensuring reliable performance batch after batch

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Specifically engineered for fiberboard and particleboard applications, these No. 8 wood screws solve common fastening challenges in woodworking and construction. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes while creating stronger thread engagement that resists loosening under vibration and load. Made from zinc-plated steel, these screws provide excellent corrosion protection for interior applications and moderate environments. The combination of Phillips drive and flat head design with 82° countersink allows for flush mounting in cabinetry, furniture assembly, and subfloor installations, ensuring clean aesthetics while maintaining structural integrity. The fully threaded shank and pointed tip facilitate quick starts and consistent driving depth, reducing installation time and improving project efficiency.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 8 x 5/8" wood screw features inch system measurements with precise thread diameter of 0.164" and 11 threads per inch. The flat head maintains standard profile with 82° countersink angle for proper seating in wood materials. Manufactured to industry standards for wood screw applications, these fasteners are suitable for use with recommended 5/64" drill bits (0.078" diameter) for optimal performance in fiberboard and particleboard substrates. The zinc-plated steel construction meets general industry requirements for corrosion protection and mechanical performance in wood fastening applications.
