Chipboard Screws

Chipboard Screws
Not sure what screw size you have or need?
Two ways to confirm before you order - whichever you already know.
1If you have a screw in hand

Measure across the outside of the thread - not the shank - to get the gauge (an 8g screw measures about 4.2mm). Screw gauges have a wider tolerance than bolts, so treat it as a close match rather than exact. Then measure the length - countersunk timber screws are measured overall, head included.

2If you know the gauge

Every product page carries a Screw Gauge and TPI chart for its range - every gauge links straight to the product. Rule of thumb for timber: coarse threads for softwood and framing, fine threads for hardwood.

T17 timber screw - gauge is measured across the thread.

Chipboard screws are countersunk, sharp-point screws designed for engineered board - chipboard, particleboard, MDF, flooring and cabinetry. The twin-thread (two intertwined threads) drives fast and grips hard in the loose-fibred core of board products where a standard wood screw would strip.

Chipboard screws are also listed under our Furniture Fasteners category - the same product, browseable in both places.

GRADES AND MATERIALS

Stocked in zinc-plated carbon steel for clean interior cabinetry and flooring work, with yellow zinc on some lines. For wet or exterior use, choose a coated or stainless timber screw instead.

DRIVE AND INSTALLATION

Phillips or Pozi drive. The sharp point starts without a pilot in most board; near an edge, pre-drill a small pilot to stop the board blowing out. Countersunk head pulls flush into the board face.

SIZE AND THREAD

Gauges 6g to 10g, lengths 12mm to 75mm. Twin-thread coarse profile for grip in board. Choose a length that holds in the receiving panel without breaking through the back face.
