This Quickscrews #8 x 1-3/4" flat head assembly screw is sized for wood-to-wood and panel-to-panel joinery where 3/4-inch stock is the primary material. A square/Phillips combination drive, coarse thread, double auger point, underhead nibs, and lubricated finish work together to keep the joint moving fast and the head sitting flush.
At 1-3/4 inches, this screw is a natural match for through-fastening into 3/4-inch sheet goods with thread engagement extending into a second panel or solid-wood member behind it. It also works well for attaching cabinet backs into face frames, securing shelf cleats into cabinet sides, and similar joinery where the combined material is roughly 1-1/2 to 2 inches thick. The length leaves enough thread in the receiving member to hold without bottoming out or breaking through thin stock.
The combination recess accepts a #2 square bit or a #2 Phillips bit — the same opening handles both. The square recess is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for one-handed placement, and the Phillips side keeps the screw accessible when a square bit is not at hand. The double auger point runs two opposing flutes from the tip, which pull chips away from the bore faster than a single-flute Type 17 and help prevent the material from packing around the shank in softer substrates. The lubricated coating keeps friction low through the full drive cycle, which matters most when running a box of 1000 through a production day.
Cabinet shops assembling boxes from 3/4-inch plywood or melamine particleboard are the clearest fit. The coarse thread and double auger point are well suited to those materials, and the flat head with nibs keeps heads flush without slowing down at each hole. Millwork shops joining softwood components, furniture manufacturers fastening solid-wood parts to panel substrates, and installers pulling face frames against cabinet boxes are also in the target range. This screw is for dry indoor work — the lubricated zinc finish is not rated for exterior or wet-area applications.
Yes. The combination recess accepts a standard #2 Phillips bit. The same opening also accepts a #2 square bit, so you can switch without changing screws.
A standard Type 17 has one flute. The double auger runs two opposing flutes from the tip, which clears chips from both sides simultaneously and helps the screw start more quickly in softwood and engineered panels.
In most wood-based materials — plywood, MDF, particleboard, and softwood — the nibs mill a clean countersink as the head seats. In very hard materials or finished faces where surface quality matters, a pre-drilled countersink still produces a cleaner result.
This screw uses a coarse thread, which is designed for softwood and engineered panel substrates. For hardwood face frames in maple, oak, or similar species, a fine-thread screw is the better choice.
The lubricated coating is a dry-applied treatment that reduces driving friction. It is applied to the thread and shank surfaces and does not typically interfere with stain or finish adhesion around the fastener once the screw is seated, though testing on scrap is always a good idea before a production run on finished parts.
When the job calls for a fast-driving, flush-seating #8 screw sized for 3/4-inch stock, this Quickscrews assembly screw delivers the combination drive flexibility and chip-clearing speed to keep a production day on track.
