Quickscrews #6 x 1-1/4" Modified Pan Head Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw Square Drive - Type 17 Auger Point Fine Thread Plain, 2722 - 8000/Box

Square Drive Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw Sized for 3/4-Inch Stock

The Quickscrews #6 x 1-1/4" Modified Pan Head Face Frame and Pocket-Hole Screw is a fine-thread cabinet fastener designed specifically for 3/4-inch hardwood face frame joinery. With a square drive, Type 17 Auger point, and modified pan head, this screw is built for the joint work that defines production cabinetry and custom shop builds alike.

Key Features

• Fine thread grips hardwood species like maple, oak, cherry, and walnut without stripping or requiring excessive torque.
• Type 17 Auger point cuts into wood fibers cleanly, reducing splitting near stile and rail ends.
• Modified pan head bears flat against the pocket wall to pull the joint tight without burying or wedging into the stock.
• #2 square drive is designed to hold the screw on a correctly sized bit for controlled one-handed placement in tight cabinet interiors.
• Plain finish keeps the screw free of coatings that could affect glue adhesion in joints where pocket-hole glue is also applied.
• 8,000 screws per box keeps high-volume face frame production running without frequent restocking.

The Right Length for Standard Face Frame Stock

The 1-1/4-inch length is the standard specification for pocket-hole joinery in 3/4-inch face frame material. At this length, the screw passes through the angled pocket bore and seats fully into the mating rail or stile without breaking through the opposite face. Shops building hardwood face frames in maple, oak, cherry, or similar species will find this length matches the most common pocket-hole jig settings for 3/4-inch stock. The fine thread is the correct thread form for these hardwoods: it provides holding power without the splitting risk that a coarse-thread screw carries in tight-grained species.

Drive, Head, and Point Working Together

The modified pan head sits flat against the angled pocket wall and distributes clamping load evenly across the joint as the screw seats. It pulls the faces flush without the wedging action that a bugle or countersunk head would introduce in face frame stock. The #2 square drive transfers torque efficiently at the angles common in pocket-hole installation, where a Phillips drive tends to cam out before the joint is fully pulled. The Type 17 Auger point starts in the mating material quickly and clears chips as it advances, which matters most when driving into the end grain of a dense hardwood rail where a standard sharp point would stall or deflect.

For Cabinet Shops Running Face Frames in Volume

This screw suits any shop that cuts pocket holes and assembles face frames as a regular part of production: custom cabinet shops, semi-custom lines, and millwork operations building in hardwood species. The 8,000-count box supports continuous runs without stopping to restock mid-batch. Fine thread and the plain finish make this screw equally at home in glued pocket joints, where coating residue is unwanted, and in mechanical-only joints where holding power is the priority.
