This Würth #8 x 1-1/8 inch drawer front adjusting screw is built for attaching and fine-tuning drawer fronts on cabinet drawer boxes. The modified washer head seats cleanly against standard adjusting hardware, while the Phillips/square combination drive and Type 17 Auger point keep installation fast and consistent across a full production run.
At 1-1/8 inch, this screw is sized to work with typical drawer box face material and adjusting hardware without over-penetrating. The length provides enough thread engagement to hold the drawer front securely once alignment is finalized, while staying clear of the drawer box interior on standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch side stock. If your drawer box uses thicker stock or a deeper clip profile, check the combined depth before committing to a length.
Drawer front installation is a two-stage process: temporary attachment for alignment, then final tightening once every gap is dialed in. The modified washer head on this screw is shaped to ride in the elongated slot or clip of standard drawer front adjusting hardware, allowing the front to shift laterally or vertically before the screw is locked down. The Phillips/square combination recess keeps the bit seated under the light torque used during the adjustment phase, and holds just as well when you drive to final position. Both drive options work in the same head, so there is no need to swap bits between the adjustment pass and the final pass.
A 6,500-count box is sized for shops that install drawer fronts in quantity, not for a one-off repair. Kitchen and bath cabinet manufacturers, custom cabinet shops finishing production runs, and multi-unit residential installers all go through drawer front screws at a rate that makes per-job purchasing inefficient. Having a full box on hand keeps the line moving when drawer front installation is a daily task. The coarse thread and Type 17 Auger point also mean the screw drives cleanly in solid wood, birch plywood, and MDF drawer box construction without requiring a pilot hole in most stock.
The modified washer head is shaped to sit inside the slot or clip of drawer front adjusting hardware, allowing the front to shift before final tightening. A standard pan head or flat head does not seat the same way in that hardware and can prevent smooth adjustment.
The combination recess accepts either a #2 Phillips or a #2 square bit. Both engage the same recess, so you can use whichever is on the driver already.
This length works well with standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch drawer box side stock when used with typical adjusting clips. If your adjusting hardware adds significant depth or your drawer box material is thicker, verify the combined penetration depth before using this length.
The Type 17 Auger point is designed to self-start in wood and wood-based panels, so a pilot hole is not required in most solid wood and plywood drawer box stock. Dense hardwood drawer boxes may benefit from a pilot to reduce driving torque.
The zinc finish is suited to dry indoor cabinet environments. It is not rated for exterior exposure, wet areas, or direct contact with treated lumber.
When drawer front alignment needs to be right the first time and stay right through the life of the cabinet, having the correct adjusting screw makes the difference between a fast, clean install and a frustrating rework. This Würth screw gives production shops the head geometry, drive flexibility, and point performance to handle drawer front attachment efficiently at any volume.
