The Würth #8 x 2" flat head assembly screw is a coarse-thread, Phillips-drive fastener built for cabinet and furniture assembly where the screw needs to seat flush and hold clean in solid wood, plywood, and engineered panels. The 2-inch length gives it enough thread engagement for typical carcass joinery without over-penetrating standard sheet goods.
At 2 inches, this screw is well suited for joining cabinet carcass sides, backs, and shelves in 3/4-inch material, where you need thread penetration deep enough to hold a load-bearing joint without punching through the opposite face. It also handles drawer box assembly in taller stock, attaching plywood sub-tops, and securing interior panels where a shorter screw would leave too little bite. For face-frame-to-box attachment through 3/4-inch plywood into the face-frame edge, the 2-inch length gives solid engagement. Cabinet installers reach for this length when they need a reliable general-purpose screw that works across the range of joints they hit in a day.
The flat head is equipped with milling nibs on its underside. As the head seats, those nibs cut into the surrounding wood fibers and create a clean countersink without a separate step, which matters in visible interiors and finished panels. The Type 17 Auger Point goes further than a standard sharp tip: the auger flute shaves material rather than wedging it apart, so the screw starts cleanly in harder species and denser sheet goods without the splitting risk that a plain gimlet point creates in tight-grained stock. The black finish reduces the visual signature of the head in stained, painted, or dark cabinet interiors where a zinc-bright head would stand out.
A box of 1,000 is sized for shops running cabinets in volume and for installers who go through a meaningful quantity on a multi-cabinet kitchen or commercial millwork job. The #2 Phillips drive means no specialty bits are required — every tech on the floor already has one. This screw covers the everyday joinery tasks that come up repeatedly in cabinet production: carcass assembly, panel attachment, and hardware backing, without the need to switch screws when the joint type changes.
Not in most wood-based materials. The milling nibs under the flat head cut their own countersink as the screw seats, so the head sits flush without a separate countersink step in solid wood, plywood, MDF, and particleboard.
Yes. The Type 17 Auger Point includes a longitudinal flute that shaves and clears wood fibers rather than wedging them. This lowers driving torque and reduces splitting in denser species and engineered panels compared to a plain gimlet tip.
Yes, the 2-inch length works for driving through a 3/4-inch plywood box side into the edge of a face frame. The flat head and coarse thread provide good holding in that joint. For hardwood face-frame member-to-member joinery, a fine-thread pocket-hole screw is the more precise choice.
It uses a standard #2 Phillips bit, which is the most common bit size in cabinet shops and on install sites.
No. The black finish on this screw is for interior woodworking and cabinet assembly. For outdoor or moisture-exposed work, use a screw with a corrosion-resistant coating rated for that environment.
When the joint is right, the countersink is clean, and the screw seats on the first pass, production stays on schedule. The Würth #8 x 2" assembly screw is built to do exactly that across the cabinet carcass and panel work that fills most shop days.
