Value Collection WPFI0-500500-100BX Flat Head Wood Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION WPFI0-500500-100BX is a No. 5 flat head wood screw with a 1/2-inch overall length, designed for secure fastening in wood substrates. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plated finish, this screw resists corrosion in standard service environments. The Phillips drive head seats flush with the work surface, making it a common choice for finish carpentry, cabinetry, trim work, and general wood assembly. Sold in a box of 100 pieces, this screw is sized for light-duty applications where a low-profile fastener is required.

This flat head wood screw is suited for residential and light commercial carpentry applications. The countersinking flat head profile is appropriate for wood-to-wood fastening where a flush or recessed finish is needed, such as cabinet face frames, drawer boxes, wood trim installation, and general millwork. The 1/2-inch overall length is well matched to thin stock and overlay applications. Installers working in general construction, furniture assembly, or interior finish carpentry will find this screw a practical standard fastener for everyday use.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose flat head wood screw for use in wood fastening applications where a No. 5 x 1/2-inch Phillips drive fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwoods to prevent splitting and ensure proper seating. Use a Phillips No. 2 bit for consistent drive engagement and to avoid cam-out. Countersink the receiving surface to achieve a flush or recessed head profile. Do not overdrive, as this can strip the wood fibers and reduce holding strength.
