Hillman Fasteners 48583 Wood Screws No.9 X 2.5 in Box 12

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 48583 is a box of 12 No. 9 x 2.5-inch zinc and yellow dichromate-coated star drive all purpose wood screws. These fasteners feature a star drive recess for positive bit engagement and reduced cam-out during installation. The zinc and yellow dichromate finish provides corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior applications. Designed for general construction, carpentry, and wood assembly tasks, these screws are suited for use by contractors, carpenters, and experienced tradespeople who need a reliable all-purpose wood fastener in a practical box quantity.

These all-purpose wood screws are appropriate for a wide range of residential and light commercial wood fastening applications including framing, decking, trim, cabinetry, and structural wood assembly. The No. 9 diameter and 2.5-inch length make them well suited for fastening dimensional lumber and engineered wood panels where a medium-depth bite is required. The star drive head type reduces stripping risk compared to Phillips drive screws, which is an advantage in production or repetitive installation work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, general contractors, or other skilled tradespeople using a star drive bit and a power drill or impact driver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwood or near board edges to prevent splitting. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and penetration depth when used in structural applications.
