Wurth #8 x 1-1/2 flat head assembly screw is a case hardened fastener designed for demanding assembly jobs, so it handles driving into wood while resisting head damage during installation. The Type 17 auger point starts the hole as it drives, which helps the screw bite quickly into material and pull components together with less effort. The coarse thread pattern is formed to move aggressively through wood fibers, so panels and framing members draw tight with fewer turns. The flat head seats flush in a countersink, which leaves a smooth surface that is ready for hinges, slides, or other hardware to sit flat. The zinc finish coats the screw, providing a clean, bright appearance that fits well in cabinet and woodworking environments where exposed fasteners still need to look professional.
This Wurth assembly screw uses a combo drive that accepts #2 Square Drive bits for primary driving, giving a positive bit engagement that helps maintain control during installation. The same recess also accepts #2 Phillips Drive bits for after market adjustment, so fine tuning or snugging joints later can be done with common Phillips drivers in the shop or on site. In the length range for this 1-1/2 inch screw, the threading runs two-thirds of the way up from the tip, which lets the unthreaded shank near the head help pull a face frame, stretcher, or bracket tightly against a mating piece without jacking the top board away.
This Wurth #8 x 1-1/2 flat head assembly screw fits well in cabinet and general woodworking assembly where wood components need to be drawn together firmly. The coarse thread engages quickly in typical woodworking substrates, so it suits fastening into carcass sides, stretchers, and face-frame elements where fast installation matters. The Type 17 auger point is designed to cut into the wood as it advances, which is useful when driving near edges or into solid members because the cutting action clears a path ahead of the threads. The two-thirds threading pattern above the Type 17 tip lets the threaded portion lock into the base material while the smoother shank area closer to the head slides through the top material, which helps clamp parts together as the head seats. The flat head profile is suited to countersunk holes in wood, so the head can sit level with or just below the surface, leaving a clean, unobtrusive finish ready for later fitting of hardware components.
The combo recess on this assembly screw is engineered for use with #2 Square Drive bits during installation, and that drive style provides a tight, deep engagement that helps transfer torque from driver to screw without frequent slipping. When after market adjustment is needed, the ability to use #2 Phillips Drive bits means installers can use widely available Phillips tools to tweak or snug joints, reducing downtime when the original bits are not at hand. Case hardened construction gives the head and drive recess extra resistance to deformation under load, so repeated engagements with square or Phillips bits are less likely to strip the recess, especially when seating the screw firmly into hardwoods or engineered panels. The zinc finish on the screw surface contributes a clean appearance around the head, which fits well in interior woodworking where fastener heads may remain visible inside cabinets or utility furniture. Together, the drive options, hardening, and finish support consistent, repeatable fastening where joints often need both strong initial assembly and later minor adjustment.
This product is a Wurth #8 x 1-1/2 inch flat head assembly screw, so it provides a common wood screw diameter and length for general cabinet and woodworking assembly tasks.
The Type 17 auger point cuts into the wood as it advances, so the screw starts more easily and tracks straight, which supports cleaner assembly at edges and into solid stock.
The coarse thread is formed to move quickly through wood fibers, so parts pull together firmly with fewer turns, which is useful in repetitive cabinet and furniture assembly work.
The combo drive is designed for #2 Square Drive bits during installation and also accepts #2 Phillips Drive bits for after market adjustment, which gives flexibility in tool choice on site.
In this length range, the screw is threaded two-thirds of the way from the bottom, so the upper shank can help pull the top piece tight against the base material.
Case hardened construction gives the screw a tough outer layer at the head and threads, so the drive recess resists stripping during firm seating and later adjustments.
The Wurth #8 x 1-1/2 flat head assembly screw with Type 17 auger point, coarse thread, and zinc finish is built for efficient cabinet and woodworking assembly. The combo drive works with #2 Square Drive bits and #2 Phillips Drive bits for flexible installation and adjustment, while case hardened construction supports repeated driving without damaging the head. For projects that call for a fast-driving, coarse thread screw in this size, this Wurth assembly screw fits well into shop and jobsite workflows.
