Value Collection R52000268 Flat Head Wood Screw No. 8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000268 is a No. 8, 3/4-inch overall-length flat head wood screw with a Phillips drive, manufactured from brass to ASME B18.6.1 standards. The flat head design allows the fastener to sit flush with or below the work surface when fully driven. Brass construction resists corrosion and is well suited for applications where ferrous metal fasteners would cause staining or react with certain wood species and treated lumber. This screw is a standard fastener used by carpenters, millworkers, and general contractors across a wide range of wood-joining tasks.

This fastener is appropriate for interior and exterior woodworking, cabinetry, furniture assembly, and light structural wood connections where a flush finish is required. The Phillips drive allows for quick installation with a standard No. 2 Phillips bit. Brass material makes it a common choice in marine, coastal, and high-humidity environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. These screws are sold in bulk quantities and are suited for high-volume trade and production work.

Key Features

• No. 8 thread size for solid bite in softwood and hardwood substrates

• Flat head profile seats flush with the work surface when properly countersunk
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and power drivers
• Brass construction provides corrosion resistance and a clean finished appearance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 flat head wood screw suitable for use in typical wood fastening applications requiring a flush-mount head and corrosion-resistant brass material.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, millworkers, and general tradespeople using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or power driver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole and countersinking the entry point is recommended to prevent wood splitting and to allow the flat head to seat flush. Avoid overtorquing, which can strip the Phillips drive recess or cause the head to sink below the desired depth in softer wood species.
