Value Collection R50000371 No. 12 Flat Head Wood Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000371 is a No. 12 flat head wood screw with a 1-3/4 inch overall length (OAL) and a slotted drive. Manufactured from steel with a zinc plated finish, this fastener is suited for general wood fastening applications where a flush or countersunk head profile is required. The Grade 2 designation indicates a standard-strength carbon steel construction. The flat head geometry allows the screw to sit flush with or below the surface of the workpiece when driven into a pre-drilled countersunk hole. These screws are sold in multiples of 100, making them appropriate for production work, rough carpentry, finish carpentry, and general trade use.

This screw is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial wood fastening applications. Typical installation scenarios include securing wood to wood substrates such as framing, trim, cabinetry, and general millwork. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or flat-head bit. The zinc plated finish provides a basic level of corrosion resistance suitable for dry interior environments. Contractors, carpenters, and general tradespeople will find this fastener useful across a wide range of wood assembly tasks.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and general tradespeople using a flat-blade screwdriver or flat-head power bit. Pre-drilling a pilot hole and countersink is recommended to prevent wood splitting and to achieve a flush head seating. Drive screws to the proper depth without overdriving, as excessive torque can strip the slot or damage the wood substrate. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and load-bearing connections.
