The Würth #8 x 2" flat head assembly screw is a coarse-thread wood screw sized to reach through 3/4-inch panel stock and into the material behind it, making it a practical choice for cabinet carcass assembly, face frame attachment, and general woodworking joinery where a flush, countersunk finish is required.
At 2 inches, this screw passes through 3/4-inch panel stock and threads well into a second member, which covers a wide range of cabinet assembly joints: side-to-bottom, side-to-top, and back-panel attachment through a rabbeted edge. It also works for attaching a face frame to a cabinet box, where penetrating both the frame stock and the panel behind it delivers a tight, lasting joint. For shop-built casework in softwood or plywood, this is a workhorse length that handles a full range of carcass joints without requiring multiple screw sizes on the same project.
The black finish reduces visual contrast inside painted or dark-stained cabinet interiors, so heads that sit just at the surface do not draw the eye. The Type 17 Auger point goes beyond a standard Type 17: the extended auger-style flute clears chips more aggressively, which matters in dense plywood or hardwood-core panels where a shorter flute can bind before the screw is fully seated. The flat head with milling nibs seats flush without a pre-drilled countersink in most wood-based panel materials, cleaning up the countersink pocket as the head drives home.
Cabinet shops running production on frameless or face-frame boxes reach for this screw when they need a single size that handles carcass assembly from start to finish. Installers assembling pre-finished cabinets on site appreciate the black head, which disappears against dark interiors when the doors are open. The 1,000-piece box keeps the bench stocked through a full kitchen run without constant restocking. For any woodworker building with 3/4-inch plywood or MDF who wants a flat head that countersinks itself and a point that starts clean in dense material, this screw covers the job.
The coarse thread is best suited for softwood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard. For hardwood face frames in maple, oak, or cherry, a fine-thread screw provides better holding power and reduces the risk of splitting tight-grained stock.
The extended auger flute clears wood fibers ahead of the thread, reducing the force needed to drive the screw and lowering the risk of splitting near the end of a panel. It is especially useful in dense plywood and hardwood-core sheet goods.
The milling nibs under the flat head cut their own countersink as the screw seats in most wood-based panel materials, so a separate countersink step is typically not required. Pre-drilling a countersink in very hard or brittle face materials can improve results.
This screw uses a #2 square drive bit. Using a correctly sized #2 square bit allows the screw to seat on the bit for controlled placement and reduces cam-out during driving.
This screw is intended for interior woodworking and cabinet assembly applications. The black finish is not rated for outdoor or high-moisture environments.
At 1,000 screws per box, this Würth #8 x 2" assembly screw is sized for shops and installers who need a reliable, flush-seating fastener on hand for the full run of a cabinet project, not just a single job.
