#8 x 2-1/2 washer head installation screw describes a case hardened fastener that provides a consistent grip during cabinet and woodworking assembly, which matters when you need repeatable holding performance across a full run of installations. The washer head design matches the SAP description "RND WSHR," so it spreads load over a larger area, which helps reduce crushing at the surface when you are pulling parts together. The sharp point coarse thread described in the web and SAP descriptions bites quickly into material, which speeds driving in typical woodworking applications. The zinc description in the data indicates a zinc finish that adds a protective layer to the steel, which is important where fasteners are exposed during normal shop or jobsite conditions. The web description identifying case hardened construction refers to a hardened surface, which helps the head and drive resist wear during installation and later adjustment.
The web description notes that this Wurth screw uses a #2 square drive bit to insert, which gives you a positive engagement between bit and recess during initial driving so you can work efficiently on vertical or overhead runs. The same description states that a #2 Phillips drive bit is used for after market adjustment, meaning the RECEX style head accepts both drive types so you can return later with a Phillips bit to snug or back out screws without changing the original driving setup. The reference to case hardened construction in the web description supports this dual-drive design by resisting rounding at the recess, which matters when you revisit an installation for fine-tuning. The #8 size and 2-1/2 length in the SAP description identify a common installation dimension, helping you match this screw to applications that call for that specific size.
The product category and class list this item under fasteners and screws, and the web description references installation use, so it suits general cabinet and woodworking assembly where a washer head profile is preferred. The #8 designation in the SAP description identifies a familiar shank size, giving a balance between strength and penetration that fits many panel and frame connections. The 2-1/2 length stated in the SAP description reaches deeper into mating members, which helps when tying thicker components together. The sharp point coarse thread from the SAP and web descriptions advances quickly in material, reducing the length of time the bit is under load on each fastener. The zinc and black finish reference in the web description also gives a specific appearance that can be matched to similar fasteners used elsewhere in a project.
The SAP description "RECEX" and the web description about using a #2 square drive to insert and a #2 Phillips bit for after market adjustment show that the head accepts both drive styles, which streamlines field work when different tools are on hand. The case hardened statement from the web description means the head and recess are designed to tolerate repeated driver engagement, which helps maintain a clean recess shape when you return later for adjustments. The washer head identified as "RND WSHR" in the SAP description provides a broad bearing surface, which can help your adjustments pull joints tight without requiring separate washers. The coarse thread described in the SAP and web records advances aggressively, which is useful when tightening during adjustment because each turn of the driver changes clamp pressure noticeably. The Wurth brand identification ties the screw directly to Wurth Baer Supply, aligning it with other fasteners in the same line so you can keep part numbers consistent across jobs.
The SAP description lists this screw as 2-1/2X8, which means a #8 diameter and 2-1/2 inch length, helping you match it to applications requiring that specific fastener size.
The web description states it uses a #2 square drive bit to insert and a #2 Phillips drive bit for after market adjustment, so the RECEX head accepts both drive styles in use.
The web description notes the screw is case hardened, indicating a hardened surface that helps the head and recess resist wear from repeated driver engagement during installation and adjustment.
The SAP and web descriptions describe a sharp point coarse thread, which allows the screw to start and drive quickly into material, reducing driving time in typical woodworking tasks.
The web description lists the screw as black and zinc and the SAP description notes zinc, identifying a zinc-based finish that provides a protective and identifiable appearance on the head.
The SAP description 2-1/2X8,CRS,RND WSHR,RECEX,ZNC indicates a round washer style head with a RECEX drive, providing a broad bearing surface with a dual-drive recess.
This Wurth #8 x 2-1/2 washer head installation screw combines a case hardened body, sharp point coarse thread, and RECEX head with #2 square and #2 Phillips drive as described, giving you a fastener suited to installation and after market adjustment. The zinc and black finish noted in the web and SAP descriptions provides a defined look and protective coating for interior woodworking conditions. The washer style head and #8 by 2-1/2 sizing from the SAP description align well with many cabinet and wood assembly scenarios, so this screw fits projects needing that dimension, head style, and dual-drive adjustment capability.
