Value Collection R52000269 Flat Head Wood Screw 8 1in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000269 is a Number 8 flat head wood screw with a 1 inch overall length, designed for wood fastening applications in residential and commercial construction, cabinetry, millwork, and general carpentry. Manufactured from brass, this screw offers natural corrosion resistance and is well suited for environments where steel fasteners may corrode or where a non-magnetic, non-sparking fastener is required. The Phillips drive head allows for fast installation with a standard Phillips bit or screwdriver. It conforms to ASME B18.6.1, the governing standard for wood screws in North America. Tradespeople, finish carpenters, and skilled DIYers typically specify brass screws for trim work, marine applications, and electrical panel enclosures where ferrous fasteners are not appropriate.

This screw is appropriate for general wood-to-wood fastening tasks where a flat, countersunk head profile is needed for a flush or below-surface finish. Common applications include cabinet installation, furniture assembly, door hardware mounting, and trim carpentry. The brass construction makes it a practical choice in humid environments, coastal installations, and anywhere galvanic compatibility with brass or bronze hardware is a consideration. These screws are sold in minimum order quantities of 100 units.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard ASME B18.6.1 flat head wood screw suitable for general wood fastening applications in carpentry, cabinetry, and millwork where a Number 8 by 1 inch brass fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, finish trades, or qualified DIYers using a Phillips bit driver or manual screwdriver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended when fastening near the edge of a workpiece or in hardwood to prevent splitting. Follow applicable building codes and project specifications for fastener size and spacing. Do not overtorque, as brass is softer than steel and the head may deform under excessive drive force.
