These flat-head fasteners feature a Type 17 cutting point that bores cleanly into wood without pre-drilling, and a special cross-cut thread design that reduces splitting and drive torque. The star drive recess delivers high bit engagement and minimizes cam-out. A bronze-colored 1,000-hour ceramic coat over yellow zinc plating provides corrosion resistance suited to outdoor and exposed installations. Carpenters, deck builders, and general contractors are the typical installers for this fastener type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese screws are intended for exterior wood fastening tasks including decking, fencing, framing, and trim work. The all-purpose designation covers softwood and hardwood substrates where a flat-head profile is required to sit flush or countersink. The 1,000-hour ceramic coat rating indicates performance in salt-spray testing, making these appropriate for coastal and high-moisture environments. Each box contains 75 screws, and the product is packaged in units of 5 boxes per case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType 17 point cuts into wood fiber cleanly, reducing the need for pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpecial cross-cut thread minimizes wood splitting and lowers drive torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStar drive recess provides high torque transfer and reduces cam-out\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1,000-hour ceramic coat over yellow zinc for corrosion resistance in exterior conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat head with nibs seats flush and cleans the countersink on installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e75 screws per pack for efficient job-site use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for general exterior wood fastening applications including decking, fencing, and structural wood assemblies where a Number 8 flat-head screw with star drive is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed with a star-drive bit sized to match the recess; use a variable-speed driver to control seating depth and avoid overdriving. For hardwood substrates or dense materials, a pilot hole may improve results even with the Type 17 point. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and edge distances on structural and deck applications. Store unused screws in a dry location to preserve the ceramic coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: Number 8 x 1.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Star Drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat Head with Nibs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 17\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: Special Cross-Cut Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bronze Colored 1,000 Hour Ceramic Coat over Yellow Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Pack\u003c\/strong\u003e: 75 screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity (Case)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 packs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HILLMAN FASTENERS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 42478\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HILLMAN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558419824946,"sku":"42478","price":35.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/16c266659fd9459bde5b91ab771a149a_3ac3b250-2bca-4970-aee0-5ef535beff81.jpg?v=1786411927","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hillman-fasteners-42478-wood-screws-8x1-75-in-75-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
