The Top Knobs M5-60 is a 60mm (2-1/3 inch) M5 pan head machine screw with a Phillips drive, designed for mounting cabinet knobs and pulls to thick drawer fronts, stacked substrates, or any application where standard shorter machine screws fall short of the back face.
Most cabinet hardware installs with screws in the 25mm to 45mm range, but thicker drawer fronts, furniture-grade overlay panels, and decorative face applications sometimes require more reach. At 60mm, this screw threads through the drawer front and into the knob or pull base without the screw tip running short before the hardware is fully seated. It is also the right choice when a shop adds a thin backing board behind a drawer front for reinforcement, adding cumulative thickness that a shorter screw cannot bridge. For designers specifying hardware on solid-wood furniture doors or custom overlay drawers, having the correct length on hand eliminates the need to improvise at install time.
The M5 thread standard is used throughout the Top Knobs product line, so this screw is a direct match for knobs and pulls in that family without requiring thread conversion or adapters. The pan head profile sits flat against the mounting surface behind the drawer front, distributing the clamping load evenly rather than pulling into a countersink. The Phillips drive is compatible with the #2 Phillips bits found in virtually every installer's kit, and it handles the low torque required for seating hardware into a pre-tapped knob base without risk of over-driving.
This screw is particularly useful for cabinet shops building face-frame kitchens with thick overlay drawer fronts, furniture makers working in solid hardwood, and finish carpenters installing hardware on custom millwork where panel thickness varies by design. Designers who specify Top Knobs hardware on projects with non-standard panel thicknesses can call out the M5-60 alongside the hardware to ensure installers have the correct fastener from the start, avoiding a last-minute trip for longer screws.
Measure the total thickness of the material the screw must pass through — typically the drawer front plus any backing — and add enough remaining length to fully engage the threads in the knob or pull base. If that combined measurement exceeds what a 45mm screw provides, the 60mm is the right choice.
Yes. The M5 thread is used across the Top Knobs line, so this screw works with knobs, pulls, cup pulls, and bar handles in that family as long as the hardware base accepts an M5 fastener.
Yes. A standard #2 Phillips driver bit is the correct tool. The pan head and M5 thread require only moderate torque, so a cordless drill or hand driver both work well.
The pan head is not a countersunk style, so it will sit flat on the surface rather than sinking below it. That is normal for this type of hardware mounting screw — the flat bearing surface distributes the load evenly across the back face of the material.
When panel thickness rules out a standard-length hardware screw, the M5-60 provides the reach to finish the job correctly — no substitutions, no short-threaded knobs, no return trips for parts.
