Value Collection R52001020 Flat Head Wood Screw No. 12

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52001020 is a No. 12 flat head wood screw with a 4-inch overall length, designed for fastening wood assemblies in residential and light commercial construction and trade work. The Phillips drive head allows for fast, controlled installation with standard power drivers. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plated finish, this screw meets ASME B18.6.1 dimensional standards, making it a reliable choice for general-purpose wood fastening where a flush, countersunk finish is required.

This screw is suited for carpentry, millwork, cabinetry, framing, and general wood-to-wood fastening tasks. The flat head profile countersinks flush with or below the work surface, which is important for applications where a smooth finish is required. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and general contractors reach for screws in this size range when securing equipment supports, blocking, nailers, and structural wood members during rough-in and finish work. Sold in quantities as specified.

Key Features

• No. 12 thread size for high pull-through resistance in wood substrates
• 4-inch overall length suitable for fastening through thick stock or layered materials
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard bit drivers and screw guns
• Flat head countersinks flush for clean, finished-surface applications
• Zinc plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry interior environments
• Meets ASME B18.6.1 dimensional standards for consistent fit and performance

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose flat head wood screw for use in standard wood fastening applications where a No. 12 diameter, 4-inch length, and Phillips drive are specified.

Installation Notes

Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwood species to prevent splitting and reduce drive torque. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical components before fastening screws into panels or enclosures adjacent to live circuits. Use a correctly sized No. 2 Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Follow applicable building codes, including IBC and local jurisdiction requirements, when using fasteners in structural applications.
