The Würth #8 x 2" flat head assembly screw is a coarse-thread, sharp-point fastener with a lubricated finish and a combination Phillips/square drive recess. At 2 inches, it has enough length to pull two panels together and leave solid thread engagement in the second piece, making it a dependable choice for cabinet carcass assembly, panel joinery, and shop production work.
Two inches gives this screw enough shank to pass through a nominal 3/4-inch panel face and reach well into the panel edge or second member behind it. That makes it useful for joining cabinet sides to a bottom or top panel, fastening a back cleat to a box side, or any similar wood-to-wood connection where the combined stock calls for length beyond 1-1/2 inches. The coarse thread is at home in plywood, solid softwood, and medium-density panels where thread pitch and pull-out resistance matter more than fine-thread density. For hardwood cabinet components, a pilot hole is a good idea at this length to prevent splitting near the screw tip.
The combination recess accepts a #2 Phillips or a #2 square bit in the same head. Both are standard driver bits in most shops and on most job sites, so you can run whichever is already loaded. The square recess is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for one-handed placement. The lubricated finish reduces friction on the thread as the screw seats, which matters in production runs where driving resistance compounds across hundreds of fasteners and adds fatigue or slows a line. The flat countersunk head seats flush in a pre-drilled countersink; without one, the head will stand proud of the surface.
Cabinet shops, millwork operations, and production woodworkers who run #8 x 2" screws in volume will find the 3,500-count box sized for sustained use without constant reordering. The combination drive also reduces the friction of bit changes when different crew members work with different drivers. This screw is for interior wood assembly in dry conditions. It is not rated for exterior use or for contact with pressure-treated lumber without additional corrosion-resistance data.
The sharp point self-starts in softwood and plywood in most cases. In hardwood or when driving close to an edge, a pilot hole reduces the risk of splitting and is worth the extra step.
The lubrication is applied to the screw threads and bearing surfaces to reduce driving torque. It is not a surface treatment that spreads onto the wood face in a way that would typically interfere with wood glue applied to the joint.
The recess accepts a #2 Phillips bit or a #2 square bit. Both engage the same head, so you do not need a specialty bit to use either drive style.
Yes. At 2 inches, the screw passes through a 3/4-inch face panel and provides solid thread engagement into the edge of the second panel. A countersink in the face panel and a pilot hole in the edge panel produce the cleanest joint.
This screw is intended for interior wood assembly. It is not rated for outdoor exposure or for use with ACQ pressure-treated lumber.
When the job calls for a flush-seating #8 assembly screw with reach beyond the first panel, the 2-inch length, combination drive, and 3,500-count pack keep a production shop running without interruption.
