This Würth #8 x 1-1/2" drawer front adjusting screw is built for attaching drawer fronts to drawer boxes where a longer fastener is needed to reach through thicker material or to ensure a firm, adjustable connection. The modified washer head, Type 17 auger point, and coarse thread work together to make installation fast and repeatable across a full run of cabinets.
Drawer front adjusting screws thread through the drawer box face and into the back of the drawer front, allowing lateral and vertical positioning before final tightening. The 1-1/2" length is well suited for drawer boxes built from 3/4-inch stock, where the screw needs enough shank to pass through the box wall and seat firmly in the drawer front panel without breaking through the face. It also works when an elongated slot or adjustment clip adds a small amount of combined material thickness. For shops building consistent 3/4-inch drawer boxes across a run of kitchen or bath cabinets, this length hits the right depth without over-penetrating.
The modified washer head carries a broader bearing surface than a standard pan or flat head, which matters when the screw bears against an oversized clearance hole or adjustment slot in the drawer box. That wide seat keeps the head from pulling through and holds the drawer front firmly once the position is dialed in. The Type 17 auger point starts cleanly in plywood, MDF, and solid wood without requiring a pilot hole, and the coarse thread pulls the joint tight efficiently. A #2 Phillips drive handles the installation, which pairs with the dedicated screwdriver bits or cordless drivers already on the bench.
Cabinet shops running production kitchens or bath lines will drive dozens of these screws per job. A box of 1,000 supports that kind of volume without leaving the installer short mid-run. The screw is also a natural choice for finish carpenters installing pre-built cabinet boxes on site, where drawer fronts need precise gap alignment before being locked down. Any installation that calls for fine adjustment of a drawer front position — kitchen cabinetry, bath vanities, furniture carcasses — benefits from a fastener that holds position during the adjustment phase and locks securely when tightened. This screw is for interior work; the zinc finish is appropriate for dry, climate-controlled cabinet interiors.
The modified washer head has a larger bearing footprint than a standard pan head. When a drawer front adjusting screw sits in an elongated slot or oversized clearance hole, that wider surface distributes clamping load and prevents the head from pulling through the opening before the front is fully tightened down.
Yes. With a 3/4-inch drawer box wall, the 1-1/2" screw passes through the box face and delivers roughly 3/4 inch of thread engagement into the drawer front panel, which is enough to hold the front securely once tightened.
The Type 17 auger point is designed to start and drive without a pilot hole in plywood, MDF, and solid wood. Pre-drilling is not required in typical drawer box materials, though a pilot helps in very hard stock close to an edge.
No. The zinc finish is rated for dry, interior environments. For cabinets in wet areas or outdoor installations, a corrosion-resistant coating is the right call.
The modified washer head and coarse thread make it most effective in adjustment-slot applications like drawer front attachment. For standard hardware mounting into a solid panel without a slot, a screw sized to the hardware's pilot hole is the better fit.
A box of 1,000 Würth #8 x 1-1/2" drawer front adjusting screws keeps production moving through full kitchen and bath runs, delivering the same reliable attachment and adjustment range on the hundredth drawer front as the first.
