Würth #7 x 1-1/2" Pan Head Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw Square Drive - Type 17 Auger Point Coarse Thread Black, 3670000034961 1000 - 1000/Box

A 1-1/2 Inch Pocket-Hole Screw Sized for 3/4-Inch Face-Frame Stock

The Würth #7 x 1-1/2" Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw is a coarse-thread pan head screw built for joining softwood, pine, and sheet-good face-frame members using pocket-hole joinery. At 1-1/2 inches, it hits the standard length for pulling 3/4-inch stock tight in a pocket joint without over-penetrating the mating piece.

Key Features

• Pan head for clean joint pull-down: the flat bearing surface draws face-frame members flush without wedging or splitting the stile.
• Coarse thread for softwood and sheet goods: deep thread spacing grips pine, poplar, plywood, MDF, and melamine effectively.
• Type 17 Auger Point: the extended flute clears chips as the screw drives, reducing resistance and the chance of splitting near pocket edges.
• #2 Square drive: the square recess is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for controlled one-handed placement.
• Black finish: low-visibility head inside painted or dark cabinet interiors.
• 1,000 per box: pack size suited to production cabinet shops running face frames in volume.

Where This Screw Belongs in Face-Frame Work

Pocket-hole joinery pulls rails and stiles together at an angle, and the fastener length has to match the stock. For standard 3/4-inch face-frame material, 1-1/2 inches is the go-to length: enough thread in the mating piece to hold the joint firmly, not so much that the tip breaks through. This screw covers the two most common face-frame tasks: joining rails to stiles when building the frame, and stitching the finished frame to the front of a cabinet box. It also works for similar butt-joint pocket work in softwood shelf cleats, light carcass backs, and shop jigs built from dimensional lumber or plywood.

Thread, Point, and Finish for Softwood and Engineered Panels

Coarse thread is the right call for softwood species and sheet goods. The wider thread spacing bites into pine, poplar, and soft maple cleanly and resists pull-out better than fine thread in low-density material. The Type 17 Auger Point extends that advantage at startup: its longer flute channels chips out of the hole as the screw drives, which keeps driving torque manageable and reduces the pressure that causes splitting near pocket edges in softer stock. The Black finish keeps fastener heads from drawing attention inside painted cabinet interiors and darker melamine boxes.

The Right Screw for High-Volume Cabinet Shops

Cabinet shops that frame in pine, poplar, or birch plywood burn through pocket-hole screws at a steady pace. A 1,000-piece box matches that production rhythm. The #2 square drive is standard in most shop bit sets, so there is no special tooling needed. This screw is for interior, dry work; it is not rated for exterior or treated-lumber applications.
