Zinc Pocket-Hole Screws - SML-F125-500 - 1-1/4 Inch - Fine Thread - Maxi-Loc Head - Indoor - 500 Count

I highly recommend Kreg joinery. If you do not know what that is, then watch some of the Kreg videos on a popular video website. These are great screws for use with the Kreg pocket screw system. These 1-1/4 inch "Fine" screws are intended for joining 3/4 inch hardwoods. You want "coarse" screws for joining softwoods. See below for more details on screw types and screw sizes. The Kreg pocket screw jig entirely changed the way I join wood. I no longer use a dado set or a router, I simply set up the jig, drill the pocket holes, and join the wood with the proper Kreg pocket screw. I own the old Kreg K3MS K3 Master Pocket Hole Jig System. The new model is the: Kreg K4MS Jig Master System . If you don't want to spend that much money, try either the Kreg Jig K4 Pocket Hole System or the Kreg R3 Jr. Pocket Hole Jig System . The Jig Master is best if you wish to make a large number of consistent pocket screw holes (for example, if you are building book shelves or kitchen cabinets). To drive these screws, you will need a power drill equipped with a "square drive" bit. A bit may come with your kit. If not (or if you want a spare) you can order the bit here: Kreg DDS 3-Inch No.2 Square Driver Bit and 6-Inch No.2 Square Driver Bit for Kreg Pocket Hole Systems . To drill out the pocket-screw holes, you will need the Kreg pocket-screw drill bit. A drill bit should come with the Kreg kit. If not (or if you want a spare), you can order one here: Kreg KJD Replacement Twist Step Drill Bit for Kreg Manual-Pocket Hole Systems . I highly recommend using Kreg-brand pocket screws. Considering the expense of wood and value of your free time, it does not make much sense to save just a few pennies by purchasing cheaper, generic screws. The "Fine" Kreg screws are for hardwoods as they reduce the chance of splitting. Use "Fine" screws in woods such as ash, oak, maple, birch, ash, walnut, cherry, hickory, or mahogany. The "Coarse" Kreg screws are for softwoods and composite materials such as MDF and plywood. Use "Coarse" screws in woods such as pine, cedar, poplar, plywood, basswood, melamine, or particle board. If you are going to buy a box of 500 screws, make sure they are the correct size for your application. You can find a screw-size chart in the Kreg "Quick-Start Guide." Just search the web for Kreg Quick-Start Guide, while limiting the search to the kregjig website. Listed below are the screw sizes (length) for various wood thicknesses. To be on the safe side, you should verify this for yourself using the Kreg website.

This screw assortment includes: 150 1 inch fine; 150 1-1/4 inch fine; 150 1 inch coarse; 15 1-1/4 inch course; and 75 2-1/2 inch coarse. Please note: For outdoor projects, you need Kreg "Blue Kote" screws.

Well what can you say about a box of screws. These are actually very good square head screws. They are of good quality and the self-taping feature works very well. It saves you trying to have to drill out a pilot hole on your joined material. A great time saver and I have not noticed any propensity for tear out on reassembly. They may seem a bit expensive but I think they are well worth the price. Use these Kreg fine thread screws for harder woods.

Better amount than the little packages at big box stores perfect for 3/4 in material.

Kreg original screws, great for pocket hole joints. good value .

The fine thread is recommended for hard woods. I found this screw to work very well attaching cherry rails and stiles for cabinet face frames. One thing I like about the Kreg system is the way these screws pull the pieces together at the joint. The washer head prevents driving the screw past the collar of the hole.

The screw box came broken open and all the screws were loose in the bag

I bought these to use with my Kreg pocket hole kit. They are exactly what you expect and are true to size. the best bang for your buck in the 500 pack

Product was as advertised and arrived as expected.
