The Würth #7 x 1-1/4" Washer Head Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw is a fine-thread, square-drive fastener built for joining hardwood face frame members and pocket-hole joinery in cabinet construction. The washer head pulls the joint tight across the face without sinking through narrow stock, and the Type 17 Auger point starts cleanly in dense hardwoods without splitting the grain.
Face frame construction in hardwood puts specific demands on a fastener. A coarse-thread screw in maple or oak can strip on the way in or split a stile under clamping pressure. This screw addresses both problems. The fine thread engages hardwood fiber gradually, building holding power without wedging the grain apart. The 1-1/4" length is sized for standard 3/4-inch face-frame stock joined with a pocket-hole jig, seating the washer head flush at the pocket face while the threads bite fully into the mating piece. The result is a tight, gap-free joint that holds through the seasonal movement hardwood frames go through on installed cabinetry.
Three design details work together on this screw. The washer head provides a wide, flat bearing surface that spans the pocket opening and clamps the joint without burying into the wood face. The #2 square drive is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit, which matters when the pocket is angled, recessed, or hard to reach inside a cabinet carcass. The Type 17 Auger point features a longitudinal flute that clears chips at the tip, helping the screw start in hardwood with less torque and less risk of splitting near the end grain of a rail or stile. The black finish keeps the head low-profile in dark cabinet interiors where the pocket may be partially visible.
Cabinet shops building face frames from hard maple, red oak, cherry, hickory, or walnut will get the most from this screw. It is sized and threaded for the most common scenario in those shops: joining 3/4-inch hardwood members at rail-to-stile pocket-hole joints, or attaching a completed hardwood face frame to a plywood or MDF cabinet box. The black finish also suits shops doing dark-interior cabinetry, media units, or furniture pieces where a silver or zinc screw head would stand out. For softwood face frames, pine boxes, or sheet-good construction, a coarse-thread variant in this family is the better match.
Fine thread is the correct choice for hardwood face frames. In dense species like maple and oak, coarse threads can strip during driving or split the stock under clamping pressure. Fine thread engages hardwood fiber more gradually, building holding power without the wedging force that causes splits at the end of a stile.
Yes. The 1-1/4" length is standard for pocket-hole joinery in 3/4-inch stock. It positions the washer head at the pocket face while giving the threaded section full engagement in the mating piece.
Yes, this screw works for attaching a hardwood face frame to a plywood or MDF cabinet box as well as for joining the face frame members themselves. Match the screw length to the combined stock thickness when attaching to the box.
The square recess is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for one-handed placement. That fit depends on using a true #2 square bit. A worn or off-spec bit will not grip as reliably.
It is well suited for the common hardwood species used in face-frame cabinetry: maple, red oak, white oak, cherry, walnut, and hickory. The fine thread and Type 17 Auger point are designed for the density and grain of those species.
When the job calls for tight, clean pocket-hole joints in hardwood, this screw gives you the head, thread, point, and drive to get there without splitting stock, stripping threads, or reaching for a second bit.
