Wurth #8 x 1-3/4 screw is a flat head assembly screw designed for fastening where a flush head is needed, so panels and hardware sit flat against the surface after driving. The screw uses a #2 Phillips drive bit, which matches a common driver size many installers already run in drills and impact drivers, helping keep changeover time down on repetitive work. A Type 17 auger point starts into material quickly by cutting its own entry, which reduces splitting risk in many wood applications and often removes the need for a separate starter hole in typical assembly setups. The coarse thread design pulls parts together firmly over fewer turns, which speeds up driving and gives strong bite in materials that accept coarse threads. The screw is case hardened, so the working surfaces are hardened for wear while the core supports the driving load in demanding production or jobsite use.
This Wurth flat head assembly screw uses #2 Phillips drive bits, so it mates directly with one of the most common bit sizes in the shop and on site, helping crews stay productive with familiar tooling. The Type 17 auger point is shaped to cut as it advances into the substrate, which lets the screw enter many wood materials smoothly and helps the threads establish a path with less wandering as driving begins. The coarse thread profile engages material quickly over the length of the threaded portion, so the screw can cinch parts together firmly while limiting the amount of driving time per fastener. With its flat head form, the screw nests into countersunk holes to create a level bearing surface, supporting tight mounting of hardware and clean panel-to-panel contact once the joint is brought up tight.
This Wurth flat head assembly screw is in the screws class within the broader fasteners category, so it is suited for fastening tasks that call for a mechanical thread to hold components together. The #8 size and 1-3/4 inch length position it for applications where material thickness allows this reach while still needing a manageable diameter for driving into wood. A flat head design lets the screw seat into a countersink, which supports use in work where a flush or nearly flush surface is important for fitting adjacent parts or hardware. The Type 17 auger point is designed for use where its cutting action into the substrate can assist entry, making it a practical option for many woodworking assembly operations that benefit from fast starts and reduced splitting tendencies.
The case hardened construction of this screw gives it a hardened outer layer, which helps the head and threads handle driving torque without deforming as easily under normal use, supporting repeatable seating from one fastener to the next. The coarse thread form engages wood fibers rapidly along the threaded length, so each turn translates efficiently into pull-down force on the joint, which is useful in production where consistent clamping action is expected. Using a #2 Phillips drive connection keeps bit engagement straightforward with widely available bits, which simplifies tool setup for crews who run multiple drivers on the same job. The zinc finish adds a metallic protective coating to the screw surface, which helps the fastener handle handling, storage, and typical shop or site exposure as it moves from bulk quantities to installation points throughout the project.
This Wurth flat head assembly screw uses #2 Phillips drive bits, which aligns with a common bit size and supports straightforward driving with standard drills or drivers.
The Type 17 auger point on this screw cuts into the material as it advances, helping it start quickly and track into many wood materials with reduced splitting risk.
This coarse thread zinc screw pulls materials together over fewer turns and the zinc finish provides a protective metallic surface suitable for normal shop and jobsite handling.
This Wurth assembly screw is #8 diameter and 1-3/4 inches long, giving reach for many woodworking joints while staying within a manageable driving size.
This screw is case hardened, providing a hardened outer surface that helps the head and threads tolerate driving torque and repeated installations in assembly operations.
The flat head on this screw seats into a countersunk recess so attached hardware or panels sit flush, which supports clean fits and smooth surfaces in finished work.
This Wurth #8 x 1-3/4 screw combines a flat head, #2 Phillips drive, Type 17 auger point, coarse thread, case hardened construction, and zinc finish to support efficient woodworking assembly. For projects where these characteristics match the required fastening method, this screw from Wurth Baer Supply offers a consistent, job-focused option for production or site work.
