The Würth #8 x 5/8" Truss Head Hinge and Drawer Slide Installation Screw is built for mounting European cup hinges and drawer slides to cabinet panels. At 5/8 inch, it drives fully into 3/4-inch cabinet material without punching through the back face, while the wide truss head spans the mounting plate hole and locks hardware in place.
When you're driving screws through a hinge mounting plate or drawer slide bracket into 3/4-inch cabinet side stock, length control matters. Too short and the thread engagement is marginal; too long and you risk punching through a finished or exposed panel face. At 5/8 inch, this screw threads fully into the panel, seats the truss head flat against the hardware, and stops well before the back surface. That makes it the right fit for standard frameless cabinet sides, face-frame carcasses with solid wood sides, and plywood or MDF ladder frames — wherever the panel is at or near the 3/4-inch mark and a clean interior finish is expected.
The truss head profile sits low and spreads load over a wide footprint, pulling the mounting plate tight without the head sinking into or distorting the panel around the hole. Combined with a coarse thread and Type 17 Auger point, the screw starts quickly in cabinet-grade particleboard, MDF, and plywood without requiring a pilot hole in most applications. The zinc finish handles the light-duty corrosion demands of an interior cabinet environment. Packed 10,000 to the box, this is a production-volume SKU suited to shops that install hinges and slides repeatedly throughout a workday.
Cabinet shops running European hinge systems and undermount or side-mount drawer slides go through hinge and slide screws quickly. The Phillips drive on this screw works with the standard #2 bits that drive almost everything else on a cabinet line, so there's no bit changeover between tasks. The 10,000-count box keeps the bin stocked through long production runs, and consistent screw geometry means the same driving feel from the first box to the last. Installers working on-site will find the same advantages: a familiar drive, a forgiving length, and a head that seats cleanly against hardware without extra fuss.
A truss head has a wider, flatter bearing surface than a countersunk flat head. It distributes clamping force across the mounting plate hole rather than wedging into a countersink, which is what the pre-drilled holes in most hinge and slide hardware are designed for.
For panels thinner than 3/4 inch — common in some frameless boxes using 5/8-inch or 1/2-inch sides — check that there is enough panel depth to accept the screw without breakthrough. A 1/2-inch panel may be too thin for this length depending on how far the hinge cup or slide hardware already penetrates the panel.
In most cabinet-grade materials — particleboard, MDF, and hardwood plywood — the Type 17 Auger point self-starts without pre-drilling. Dense hardwood solid stock may benefit from a pilot, but for standard engineered panels this point is designed to enter cleanly under driver torque alone.
Yes. An #8 gauge screw with a truss head is the standard fit for European hinge mounting plates that accept a coarse-thread wood screw rather than a euro-thread fastener. Confirm the mounting plate hole diameter against a #8 shank if you are working with a less common hinge brand.
Yes. The same truss head and #8 coarse-thread profile that suits hinge mounting plates also fits the elongated slots in most side-mount drawer slide hardware. The 5/8-inch length is appropriate where the slide mounts directly to a 3/4-inch cabinet side.
When hardware goes on fast and the screw seats consistently every time, the installation keeps moving. That's what this 5/8-inch truss head screw is for: the right length, the right head, and a familiar Phillips drive — 10,000 to the box so you're not stopping to reorder mid-run.
