The Würth #8 x 1-1/4" flat head assembly screw is a coarse-thread wood screw built for cabinet shop and woodworking production. The 1-1/4" length makes it a natural match for fastening through or into standard 3/4-inch panel stock, drawer components, and light face-frame work in softwood. A #2 square drive, Type 17 Auger point, and underhead nibs round out a spec set tuned for clean, consistent installation at volume.
At 1-1/4", this screw is sized for the most common panel thickness in cabinet and furniture work. It pulls cleanly through a 3/4-inch face panel and bites into the material behind it without blowing through a second panel or backing board. That makes it useful for attaching back panels to cabinet boxes, fastening drawer-box components, securing shelf cleats to case sides, and similar light assembly tasks where length precision matters. For softwood face-frame joinery in pocket-hole applications, the coarse thread and 1-1/4" length follow standard sizing for 3/4-inch stock.
The screw is carbon steel with a black finish, suited for interior woodworking where the fastener will be hidden or recessed below the surface. The flat head seats flush when driven into a countersink, and the underhead nibs mill the countersink seat as the screw is driven, reducing the need for a separate drill step in many softwood and panel applications. The Type 17 Auger point carries an extended flute that pulls chips out ahead of the thread, reducing splitting risk in softwood and composite sheet goods. Coarse thread geometry grips the fiber matrix of softwood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard effectively. For interior applications in dry environments, this finish is the right call. It is not rated for exterior or high-moisture use.
Cabinet shops, millwork operations, and production woodworkers burn through 1-1/4" screws quickly because so much of a case build lands in this length range. The 1,000-piece box keeps a commonly needed size on hand without constant reordering. It suits shops that run the same assembly sequence repeatedly and need a screw that drives consistently from the first piece to the last in the box.
Yes. For 3/4-inch softwood or sheet goods joined with pocket holes, 1-1/4" is the standard length. The coarse thread on this screw matches that application in softwood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard.
The Type 17 Auger point has an extended fluted tip that clears wood fibers ahead of the thread as the screw is driven. This reduces torque and lowers splitting risk compared to a plain sharp point, especially in softwood and engineered panels.
In many softwood and panel materials, the underhead nibs mill a countersink as the screw seats, so a separate countersink step is often not needed. In harder materials, pre-countersinking will give a cleaner result.
This screw has a coarse thread, which is suited for softwood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard. For hardwood face frames in maple, oak, or cherry, a fine-thread screw is the better choice to prevent splitting and maintain holding power.
Yes. The black finish is appropriate for dry interior applications. It is not intended for exterior or high-humidity environments.
When the length is right and the drive holds, a 1,000-piece box of assembly screws should carry a production run without surprises. This Würth #8 x 1-1/4" delivers a spec set matched to softwood and panel assembly at the thickness where most cabinet work happens.
