#8 x 1-1/4 drawer front adjusting screw describes a Wurth screw designed for attaching drawer fronts using a modified washer head, so the larger 1/2 inch diameter head spreads load across the drawer front and helps reduce surface crushing on wood materials. The coarse thread noted in the description cuts a firm bite into softer substrates, which helps the front stay tight under repeated use. The Type 17 auger point at the tip assists thread start in wood by removing a small amount of material as it advances, which supports smoother driving and helps reduce splitting in typical drawer front applications. The screw uses Phillips/square combination drive, so installers can drive it with common bits while getting improved bite from square drive bits during production work.
The modified washer head on this Wurth drawer front adjusting screw presents a flat, wide bearing face, so when the screw is tightened against the backside of a drawer front it distributes force across more area and helps maintain the front position during fine adjusting. The #8 diameter combined with coarse thread profile allows the threads to cut deeply into wood substrates, so the front stays seated under everyday drawer loading. The Type 17 auger point gives the screw a self-starting action in many wood applications, so installers can bring the screw up to the workpiece and engage the material with less walking at the tip, which supports consistent placement across a run of cabinets.
This modified washer head drawer front adjusting screw is identified as #8 x 1-1/4 inch, so it is suited to drawer front attachment situations where the installer wants a moderate penetration depth behind the front without passing through common cabinet components. The 1/2 inch diameter washer head referenced in the web description offers a broad footprint against adjustment brackets or pre-drilled clearance holes in the drawer box, so the head can span oversize slots or holes used for fine-tuning the front position. Because the product sits in the screws category within fasteners, it is oriented toward woodworking and cabinet work handled by shops and serious installers who rely on predictable holding power.
The Phillips/square combination drive on this Wurth drawer front adjusting screw works with square drive bits as stated, so production teams can run square drive drivers for positive bit engagement and reduced bit slip, which supports consistent seating torque from drawer to drawer. The Type 17 auger point described in the SAP and web information removes a small core of material as it advances, which helps the screw establish its own path in wood and supports straighter driving with less end-grain splitting in many layouts. The case hardened construction referenced in the web description gives the screw a hardened outer surface, which resists head deformation during high-torque driving and helps preserve the recess shape over repeated bit engagements. The zinc finish identified in the description adds a protective layer over the steel, which supports the screw in standard interior cabinet environments where incidental humidity exists around drawer stacks.
This Wurth drawer front adjusting screw uses a Phillips/square combination drive and, as stated, uses square drive bits, which gives installers flexible driver options and solid bit engagement for repetitive fastening.
The Wurth 0684624001961 6500 screw is #8 x 1-1/4 inch, so it offers moderate penetration depth suitable for many drawer front attachment setups without excessive projection behind the mounting surface.
This screw uses a modified washer head with a 1/2 inch diameter bearing surface, which spreads clamping force over more area and helps stabilize drawer fronts against brackets or wood.
The Type 17 auger point on this screw helps it start in wood by clearing chips as it advances, which supports smoother driving and helps reduce splitting during drawer front installation.
This Wurth drawer screw is case hardened with a zinc finish, so the hardened surface supports bit engagement under torque while the zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance indoors.
The coarse thread on this screw bites firmly into wood substrates, which supports strong holding power and helps maintain drawer front alignment during everyday opening and closing.
The Wurth #8 x 1-1/4 inch modified washer head drawer front adjusting screw combines a broad 1/2 inch head, coarse thread, and Type 17 auger point, so it supports solid clamping and smooth starts in common wood drawer front applications. The Phillips/square drive and case hardened, zinc-finished construction give shops a fastener that works efficiently with square drive bits while holding up under repeated driving. For drawer front attachment tasks that need consistent alignment and firm hold in wood, this dedicated drawer front adjusting screw from Wurth Baer Supply is a focused choice.
