This Würth #8-32 x 1-3/4" truss head machine screw is built for mounting cabinet knobs, pulls, and decorative hardware where standard shorter lengths fall short. The 8-32 thread is the North American cabinet hardware standard, so it drops straight into knobs and pulls without thread-matching guesswork. The truss head's wide, low-profile bearing surface distributes clamping load across the door or drawer face, and the combination Phillips/slotted drive gives you a choice of bit when working in tight spaces.
Most cabinet hardware ships expecting a 1" or 1-1/4" screw for a single thickness of door or drawer stock. The 1-3/4" length steps in when that standard reach is not enough. Thick slab drawer fronts, double-layer panel builds, doors with a solid wood overlay over the box, and installations where the hardware base plate sits proud of the face all call for a longer fastener. At 1-3/4", this screw threads fully through the combined thickness and engages the knob or pull post with adequate thread depth, so the hardware pulls tight and stays there.
The truss head's extra-wide diameter keeps the bearing surface spread over the panel face rather than concentrating load at a single point, which matters on finished cabinet doors where a small head could pull through a surface laminate or mar the finish. Zinc plating is right for indoor cabinetry in dry conditions. This is an interior fastener; for any application with moisture exposure, choose a screw with a more protective coating. The 8-32 fine thread engages pre-tapped knob and pull holes precisely, with enough thread density to hold hardware tight under daily use without stripping.
Cabinet installers and finish carpenters often work through a full set of doors and drawers in a single session. The combination Phillips/slotted drive on this screw means you can reach for the driver that's already in your hand rather than stopping to swap bits. A #2 Phillips works for most powered driving; a flat-blade gets you into recessed or tight-clearance pulls where a Phillips shank won't clear. Packed 100 to the box, this screw suits both the installer hanging a full kitchen's worth of hardware and the homeowner replacing a handful of pulls on a renovation weekend.
When a drawer front is thicker than standard, when two panels are stacked, or when a hardware base plate adds depth between the face and the knob post, a shorter screw won't engage enough thread. The 1-3/4" length provides the extra reach to seat the hardware properly in those situations.
Yes. The 8-32 thread is the North American standard for cabinet hardware, so it is compatible with knobs, pulls, cup pulls, and bar handles from virtually all hardware manufacturers.
The truss head has a wider diameter than a standard pan or flat head, spreading clamping load across more of the panel surface. This reduces the chance of the head marking or pulling through finished cabinet faces under the hardware.
Yes. Use a #2 Phillips bit for powered driving. The slotted option is there as a backup for flat-blade drivers in tight spots, not as the primary driving method for power tools.
The zinc finish is rated for dry indoor conditions. For cabinet hardware in areas with regular moisture exposure, a screw with a more protective finish is the better choice.
When the job calls for a longer reach on cabinet knobs and pulls, this Würth 8-32 x 1-3/4" truss head machine screw delivers the thread engagement, bearing surface, and drive flexibility to get hardware seated flush and held tight through years of daily use.
