This Würth #8 x 1-1/4 inch drawer front adjusting screw is built for attaching and aligning drawer fronts to drawer boxes in face-frame and frameless cabinetry. The 1-1/4 inch length is well matched to standard 3/4-inch drawer front stock, giving enough thread engagement in the drawer box face without over-penetrating thinner panels. With a modified washer head, Phillips drive, Type 17 Auger point, and coarse thread, it is a production-ready fastener for kitchen, bath, and furniture cabinet shops.
Drawer front installation involves driving through an oversized slot or clearance hole in the drawer box face, then threading into the back of the drawer front panel. The 1-1/4 inch length is designed for that combined stack: it passes through the drawer box wall and seats firmly in 3/4-inch drawer front stock without breaking through the visible face. This makes it a natural fit for standard cabinet construction where both the drawer box and the drawer front are built from 3/4-inch material. Shops working with thinner drawer box panels or drawer fronts outside that range should verify the combined thickness before ordering.
The modified washer head provides a wide, flat bearing surface that distributes clamping pressure evenly across the elongated slot in the drawer box face. This matters during the alignment phase, when the screw needs to hold the drawer front in place under hand pressure while the installer checks reveals before final tightening. The Type 17 Auger point cuts into the drawer front material cleanly on first contact, reducing the chance of the screw wandering in an oversized hole and helping it grab quickly once the front is positioned correctly.
Drawer front adjusting screws are a high-turnover item in any cabinet operation. Kitchen and bath shops installing full runs of cabinetry use them on every drawer, and the 6,500-count box is sized accordingly. The Phillips drive means any crew member with a standard drill driver can install without hunting for a specialty bit. For installers doing on-site adjustments after delivery, the same Phillips compatibility means the screw tightens down with whatever driver is already in the bag. Frameless and face-frame shops both rely on this type of screw, and the coarse thread performs consistently across the plywood, MDF, and particleboard drawer box materials common to both construction methods.
The 1-1/4 inch length is sized to pass through a standard 3/4-inch drawer box face and engage firmly in the back of a 3/4-inch drawer front panel. That combined stock thickness is typical in production cabinetry, making this length the most common specification for that application.
Yes. The Type 17 Auger point is designed to self-start in wood and engineered panel materials. A pilot hole is not required in most standard drawer box substrates.
The modified washer head is designed to ride in the elongated slots common to drawer front adjustment clips and plates, allowing lateral and vertical positioning before final tightening.
Yes. The coarse thread engages well in the plywood, MDF, and particleboard used in both construction methods, and the modified washer head suits the adjustment hardware used across both styles.
The zinc finish is suited for dry interior cabinet applications. It is not intended for exterior use or high-moisture environments.
When the length matches the stock and the head suits the hardware, drawer front installation moves quickly and the reveals line up right the first time. The 1-1/4 inch Würth drawer front adjusting screw is that match for standard 3/4-inch cabinet construction, packed in the quantity a busy shop actually needs.
