Forgefix Wood Screw Brass 1-1/2in x 8 Pack 10

These ForgeFix traditional slotted single-thread wood screws are made from solid brass with countersunk heads, designed for a range of internal and external woodworking applications. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance, making them suitable for decorative use or situations where the screw may encounter the elements. Each pack contains 10 screws, sized at 1.5 inches (38 mm) in length, with a 8 gauge designation. The countersunk heads allow the screw to sit flush with substrates for a smooth surface finish, while the single-thread design aims to offer higher pull-out values and quicker insertion. They can be used with wall plugs and require a slotted screwdriver. For most work, a flared tip is ideal, but if the screw needs to be driven below the material surface, a parallel tip screwdriver should be used. A general reminder is to match the screwdriver tip width to the screw slot to avoid head damage during driving.
