#8 x 1-1/8 inch drawer front adjusting screw gives you a dedicated fastener for setting and tightening drawer fronts to your drawer boxes. The Wurth #8 x 1-1/8 inch Modified Washer Head Drawer Front Adjusting Screw Phillips/Square Drive - Type 17 Auger Point Coarse Thread Zinc, 0684624002961 6500 - 6500/Box description establishes it as a screw sized for typical drawer front fastening depths, so you can pull fronts tight without over-penetrating material in most common cabinet constructions. Its drawer front adjusting role means you can fine-tune front alignment during installation, gaining consistent reveals across a run of cabinets. This screw focus on drawer front use helps streamline hardware selection for casework, because the dimensions, head style, and thread profile are all matched to that job.
The SAP description identifies this fastener as 1-1/8X8,DFA,RECEX TRSS,T17,ZNC, confirming the 1-1/8 inch length and Type 17 auger point in one line. That 1-1/8 inch length gives you enough penetration into the drawer box material to hold the front firmly while still being sized for typical drawer side thicknesses in cabinet construction. The Type 17 auger point is designed to start easily in wood, so the screw can begin cutting its own path into many drawer box materials, reducing the likelihood of wandering at the start of driving. Coarse thread paired with that auger point means the screw advances quickly once started, saving time during repetitive drawer front installations across multiple cabinets in a project.
The product name identifies it as a Drawer Front Adjusting Screw, so its primary role is fastening and adjusting decorative drawer fronts to structural drawer boxes. The #8 size and 1-1/8 inch length suit many standard cabinet drawer box constructions, giving solid engagement in side or rail material while leaving the head accessible for later adjustment. The modified washer head is called out both in the name and description, so it is intended to bear against the back face of the drawer front rather than countersinking, which keeps the front moveable during alignment and then secure when finally tightened. Case hardened construction supports repeated drive and re-drive cycles that are common when fitting fronts, such as loosening to tweak reveal and tightening again during final fit-out.
The web description states that this is a 1/2 inch diameter washer head screw, so the broad head gives a stable bearing surface as you snug the front, helping pull the panel into a flat, even plane against the drawer box. Coarse thread, as specified, helps the screw draw in quickly with each turn, which is useful when bringing a slightly proud front into flush alignment without excessive driving time. The zinc finish noted in the SAP and description provides a smooth surface that works well with most drawer box materials, allowing the head underside to slide slightly during the last bit of adjustment before final tightening. The stated use of square drive bits and the Phillips/Square Drive description means the drive recess is designed for positive bit engagement, which helps maintain control of screw torque when making small alignment changes that determine final drawer reveal quality.
The Wurth drawer front adjusting screw is a #8 x 1-1/8 inch fastener, giving a balance between holding strength and suitable length for common cabinet drawer front to drawer box connections.
The modified washer head provides a 1/2 inch diameter bearing surface that spreads clamping force on the drawer front, helping pull the panel tight while limiting surface crushing during adjustment.
The Type 17 auger point helps the screw start and cut into wood more easily, which supports smooth driving into drawer box materials when you are setting or adjusting fronts.
The product description notes Phillips/Square Drive and specifically states it uses square drive bits, so installers can engage the head with common square drive tools on site.
The coarse thread profile, as specified, lets the screw bite firmly into typical drawer box materials, pulling fronts into position with fewer turns during alignment and tightening.
The case hardened zinc-finished construction provides a hard driving surface with protective coating, supporting repeated drive cycles on drawer fronts in everyday cabinet environments.
This #8 x 1-1/8 inch drawer front adjusting screw is purpose-identified in the product name and SAP description as a Wurth drawer front fastener with modified washer head, coarse thread, and Type 17 auger point in a zinc finish. Those verified details combine to support controlled drawer front positioning, strong engagement in common drawer box materials, and repeatable adjustments across multiple cabinets. When a project calls for consistent drawer front reveals with a screw matched to that task, this Wurth part number 0684624002961 6500 provides a focused option built around drawer front adjusting needs.
