This Würth #8 x 1 inch drawer front adjusting screw is built for attaching and aligning drawer fronts to drawer boxes in face-frame and frameless cabinet installations. The 1 inch length suits standard 3/4 inch drawer box material with a shallow countersink, giving installers a secure grab without over-penetrating the box face.
Drawer front adjusting screws get driven through an elongated slot or oversized hole in the drawer box face, then threaded into the back of the drawer front. That connection stays loose enough to shift the front into alignment before the final tighten. The 1 inch length works well when the drawer box is built from 3/4 inch plywood or MDF, leaving enough thread in the drawer front to hold without the tip breaking through the face. It is a common first-pass length for standard frameless and face-frame kitchen and bath cabinet boxes before the installer confirms the final gap and squares everything up.
The modified washer head is sized to bear against the drawer box material around the slot opening rather than pulling through it. That wide bearing surface keeps the front adjustable under load rather than canting as tension builds. The Phillips/Square combination recess accepts whichever bit the installer has at hand. Square drive holds the screw on a correctly sized bit for easier one-handed placement during the adjustment stage, while Phillips compatibility means the screw works in a mixed-bit environment without a change. The zinc finish is matched to dry interior cabinet work and holds up in the enclosed environment of a cabinet box.
A box of 7,000 is sized for shops running drawer fronts on a production basis, where a single order covers a full project run or more. Site cabinet installers working through a kitchen or bath renovation will find the 1 inch length a reliable starting point for box thicknesses they encounter most often. The Type 17 Auger point handles the mixed substrates common in production work, including plywood, MDF, and melamine-faced particleboard, without slowing down between boxes.
Most drawer boxes are built from 3/4 inch plywood or MDF. The 1 inch screw passes through the box face and threads into the drawer front without the tip breaking through, giving enough thread engagement to hold the front securely once alignment is set.
The combination recess accepts either a #2 Phillips or a #2 square bit. Both fit the same recess, so there is no need to switch bits depending on what is loaded in the driver.
The modified washer head has a wider bearing flange than a standard pan head. That wider surface distributes the clamping load across more of the drawer box material around the slot opening, which helps keep the front stable and adjustable rather than tilting as the screw is tightened.
Yes. The coarse thread and Type 17 Auger point are well suited to MDF, particleboard, and melamine-faced panels. The auger flute clears material as the screw drives, which helps prevent overloading the substrate around the hole.
Each box contains 7,000 screws, sized for production shops and installers working through high volumes of cabinet installations.
Drawer front alignment is a step where small details make a visible difference in the finished job. This 1 inch adjusting screw gives installers the length, head geometry, and drive flexibility to set every front accurately and move on without rework.
