Whenever there is a requirement to moderate corrosion resistance, a Wood Screw made of bright zinc plated steel is a perfect fit to complete many projects. We are proudly introducing our own branded RS PRO Wood Screws with measurements of 30 mm long and 5 mm thread size. Countersunk is one of the most popular shapes, same as Pozidriv characterising the drive type as these parameters are essential to materialise your plan safely and aesthetically pleasing.

Our Screws are modern production, giving you reliable and robust penetration of various types of hardwood. They can also withstand high-intensity driving. The primary purpose of these Woodscrews is to serve specifically for use in particle boards, MDF and when fixing timber.

You are getting a similar insertion speed to twin-threaded Woodscrews, and their usability may be used in end grain section. No pilot hole is required in most of timbers, meaning you are gaining more time and reducing potential damage of the Wood so you can focus on other vital tasks.

Where to use Woodscrews is almost endless, but the most common places are:

• Using Wood Screws when joining cabinets and furniture parts


• Mounting hardware and trim


• Utilising Steel Wood Screws in building jigs and clamping forms


• Using Screws for MDF (Medium-Density Fibreboard)

How much weight can a Wood Screw Hold?

Various coarse-threaded wood screws can hold weights over 100 pounds when attached to purpose-made wood studs.

How far should Screws go into Wood?

The thickness of materials being joined and the orientation of the parts of the joint will have a direct bearing on the appropriate screw length. The recommendation would be to use a screw of at least 2 to 3 times the thickness of the material you are adding. It might be necessary to try screws of various lengths before identifying those best suited to your purposes. If the Screw doesn’t fully penetrate the material allowing for tightening, then you should cut off the end. It will be necessary to apply a screw of a shorter length.
