Hillman Fasteners 40138 No. 10 X 2.5 in Zinc Wood Screw 100pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 40138 is a zinc-plated flat head Phillips wood screw sized No. 10 x 2.5 inches, sold in a 100-piece pack. The flat head countersinks flush with the work surface, and the Phillips drive provides positive bit engagement during installation. The zinc coating delivers basic corrosion resistance for interior wood applications. These screws are a standard stock item for carpenters, framers, cabinet installers, and general contractors who need a reliable fastener in quantity.

This screw is suited for wood-to-wood fastening in residential and light commercial construction. Typical applications include cabinet assembly, furniture repair, subfloor work, trim carpentry, and general wood framing tasks. The No. 10 diameter and 2.5-inch length provide solid holding strength through standard lumber and sheet goods without splitting thinner stock when pilot holes are used.

Key Features

• Flat head profile countersinks flush with or below the wood surface
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Zinc plating provides corrosion resistance for interior use
• No. 10 x 2.5 inch size suitable for medium-duty wood fastening

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 x 2.5 inch flat head Phillips wood screw for use with softwoods, hardwoods, and engineered wood panels in interior construction and woodworking applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, finish installers, and general trades using a No. 2 Phillips bit in a hand or power driver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwoods and near board edges to prevent splitting. Do not overdrive into softwood or engineered sheet goods, as stripping the head or blowing out the substrate surface are common results of excessive torque.
