The Würth #8 x 2" flat head assembly screw pairs a Type 17 Auger point and coarse thread with a nib-backed flat head and a #2 Phillips drive, making it a capable choice for panel-to-panel joints, cabinet box assembly, and interior wood connections where depth of thread engagement and a flush-seated head both matter.
At 2 inches, this screw reaches deep enough to span a cabinet panel face and bite well into a mating edge or back member without punching through typical 3/4-inch stock twice over. That makes it a natural fit for joining the sides, tops, and bottoms of a cabinet box, securing face-frame backing blocks, or fastening interior shelf cleats where solid thread engagement in the receiving member is the priority. The coarse thread works efficiently across the softwoods, plywood, MDF, and particleboard common to cabinet carcass construction, pulling the joint closed without excessive torque at the tool.
The flat head with nibs handles countersinking on its own in most wood-based panel materials — the nibs mill the seat as the screw is driven, leaving the head flush without an extra prep step. The Type 17 Auger point is an extended fluted tip that cuts wood fiber rather than wedging it aside, which reduces splitting when fastening near an edge and lowers the driving resistance in denser material. Zinc plating covers the screw for standard indoor use. This is an interior fastener; outdoor or high-humidity applications call for a coating rated for that exposure.
Cabinet shops assembling carcasses in volume, millwork operations joining solid wood and panel components, and installers securing built-ins and casework will find the 2-inch length and coarse thread combination productive across a wide range of common joint depths. The pail format keeps a large quantity accessible on the bench or at the cart without constant restocking. Because this screw runs on a #2 Phillips bit — the bit already in most cordless drivers — there is no tool change needed to put it to work.
Yes. Driven through one 3/4-inch panel and into the edge of a second, a 2-inch screw leaves roughly 1-1/4 inches of thread in the receiving member — enough for solid pull-out resistance in plywood or MDF with a coarse-thread design like this one.
In most wood-based sheet goods and softwoods, yes — the nibs on the underside of the head mill the countersink as the screw seats. In very hard or dense materials, a pilot countersink may produce a cleaner result.
The Type 17 Auger has an extended fluted tip that cuts and removes wood fibers rather than simply pushing them aside. This lowers driving torque, reduces the chance of splitting near an edge, and helps the screw start cleanly in denser material.
No. The zinc finish on this screw is rated for dry interior environments. Outdoor work, treated lumber, or high-humidity installations require a coating rated for those conditions.
A #2 Phillips bit. That is the standard size for #8 screws and the bit most cordless drivers ship with, so no dedicated tooling is needed.
When the joint needs 2 inches of penetration, a flush-seated head, and a point that starts cleanly in panel material, this Würth assembly screw covers the application — and the pail quantity keeps production moving without interruption.
