The Amerock #6 x 5/8" oval head screw in Oil Rubbed Bronze is an installation screw designed for mounting decorative cabinet hardware where the fastener head will remain visible. The domed oval head sits slightly proud of the surface for a finished, intentional appearance, and the Oil Rubbed Bronze finish coordinates directly with hardware finished in the same tone.
This screw is built for hardware installation where the fastener head stays exposed. When a pull, knob, or escutcheon is mounted and the screw head reads as part of the finished surface, a generic silver or zinc screw undercuts the hardware selection. The Oil Rubbed Bronze finish on this oval head screw keeps the fastener from drawing the eye away from the hardware. It works on cabinet doors, drawer fronts, furniture pieces, and decorative box hardware where Oil Rubbed Bronze is the specified finish family.
The 5/8" length suits shallow mounting conditions: attaching hardware plates, face-mount escutcheons, and light surface hardware where a longer screw would punch through the substrate or bottom out in a shallow boss. For installations where the screw passes through a cabinet face and threads into hardware on the back side, verify that 5/8" gives adequate thread engagement for the combined stack thickness.
The screw is steel with an Oil Rubbed Bronze finish applied over the head. The oval head has a countersunk underside that seats into a matching countersink, with the characteristic low dome sitting above the surface. That dome is the visual element that makes oval heads a common choice for decorative hardware work: the rounded profile reads as a purposeful design detail rather than a utilitarian fastener. Fine thread on the shank provides the thread engagement density suited to the pre-tapped holes and short engagement lengths typical in decorative hardware mounting.
Cabinet shops, furniture builders, and installers specifying Oil Rubbed Bronze hardware across a full project run through finish-matched screws quickly. A box of 2000 supports continuous installation without sourcing interruptions and keeps a consistent screw on hand for touch-ups, replacements, and punch-list items. Because the screw is an Amerock product, it is a natural companion to Amerock pulls, knobs, and plates already specified in that finish.
A flat head countersinks flush and disappears into the surface. An oval head countersinks but leaves a small rounded dome above the surface. For decorative hardware where the fastener is visible, the dome reads as a finished detail rather than an afterthought. If the hardware or the design calls for a flush fastener, a flat head is the right choice.
The Oil Rubbed Bronze finish is applied to the screw head, which is the part that remains visible after installation. The shank threads into the substrate or a hardware boss and is not exposed once the hardware is seated.
Oval heads use a standard countersunk underside. The exact angle should match the countersink in the hardware mounting plate. Amerock hardware designed for this screw will have a compatible countersink already machined into the mounting plate.
Oil Rubbed Bronze is a finish category, not a single standardized color, so there can be variation between brands. For the closest match, pair this screw with Amerock hardware. When mixing brands, check the finish tone in person before committing to a full install.
A low-speed drill driver or hand driver is recommended for decorative hardware screws this size. Impact drivers deliver more torque than a #6 screw at this length can absorb, which risks stripping the Phillips recess or over-driving the head through a hardware mounting plate.
Choosing a finish-matched oval head screw keeps every visible fastener consistent with the hardware it secures, so the installation looks deliberate from the pull to the plate to the screw head.
