This Würth #8 x 2 inch flat head assembly screw is built for cabinet carcass assembly, face frame attachment, panel joinery, and hardware backing where the joint spans 3/4-inch stock and needs a screw with enough shank to grip deeply into the receiving piece. The combo drive recess, Type 17 Auger point, coarse thread, and nibs under the flat head work together to drive cleanly and seat flush in a single pass.
Two inches hits the practical sweet spot for a wide range of cabinet and furniture joinery. When you are screwing through a 3/4-inch panel face and threading into an edge or adjacent panel, the 2-inch length clears the near-side material and gives the thread roughly 1-1/4 inches of engagement in the receiving piece. That depth is enough for reliable pull-out resistance in plywood, particleboard, and MDF without over-penetrating thin stock. The same length works for attaching back panels to box frames, securing stretchers and cross-members in furniture carcasses, and anchoring hardware backing blocks. In a production shop running cabinet boxes, this is often the default length on the driver for panel-to-panel work.
The combo recess accepts both a #2 Phillips and a #2 square bit. Either bit seats in the same recess, which removes the need to swap drivers when crews are using different bit types on the same job. The square recess is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for one-handed placement, an advantage in tight cabinet interiors where the other hand is holding a panel in position. The flat head with nibs countersinks as the screw drives, pulling flush without a pilot countersink in most wood-based panels. The black finish keeps fastener heads inconspicuous in dark cabinet interiors, painted assemblies, and anywhere a bright zinc head would show through a finish.
This screw suits shops running production cabinet boxes, installers assembling site-built cases, and finish carpenters building furniture and built-ins. The Type 17 Auger point handles the range of materials common in that work: hardwood face frame stock, furniture-grade plywood, melamine-faced particleboard, and MDF. Coarse thread pulls well in all of those substrates. A box of 1000 supports a shop or multi-cabinet install without repeated restocking.
The recess accepts a #2 Phillips bit or a #2 square bit. Both fit the same head, so either works.
The Type 17 Auger point reduces the need for a pilot in most hardwoods by clearing fibers ahead of the thread. In very dense species or when fastening near an edge, a pilot hole prevents splitting.
Yes, in most wood-based panels. The nibs under the flat head mill a countersink as the screw seats. In very hard or laminated surfaces, a countersink bit produces a cleaner result.
The 2-inch length works well for this joint. The screw clears the near-side 3/4-inch panel and threads about 1-1/4 inches into the receiving piece, providing solid grip in plywood, MDF, and particleboard.
Coarse thread is optimized for wood substrates including solid wood, plywood, MDF, particleboard, and melamine-faced panels. It provides strong pull-out resistance in those materials.
When the 2-inch length matches the joint, the screw drives clean, seats flush, and holds without over-penetrating — which means less rework, fewer panel blowouts, and a box of 1000 that goes the distance in the shop or on the install.
