Value Collection R50000372 Size 8 Round Head Wood Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000372 is a size 8 round head wood screw designed for fastening wood components in general construction, cabinetry, and light structural applications. Featuring a slotted drive and a zinc-plated Grade 2 steel construction, this screw delivers reliable corrosion resistance for both indoor and sheltered outdoor use. The round head profile sits above the surface after installation, making it a common choice when a flush-mount finish is not required. The 1.5-inch length under head provides adequate thread engagement for standard wood-to-wood and wood-to-substrate fastening tasks. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 units per pack.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial woodworking, furniture assembly, rough carpentry, and general-purpose fastening where a slotted drive is preferred or required. The zinc plating provides a basic protective finish appropriate for dry or low-humidity environments. The size 8 thread diameter works well with softwoods and medium-density hardwoods across a range of thicknesses. Carpenters, finish trim contractors, and maintenance technicians commonly stock this fastener for routine repair and assembly work.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended to prevent wood splitting, particularly in hardwoods or near board edges. Use a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted insert bit sized for a number 8 screw to avoid cam-out and head damage. Ensure the workpiece is properly clamped or secured before driving. Do not overdrive the screw, as the round head is not designed to countersink and excess torque can strip the head or split the substrate.
