Chipboard Screw

Chipboard Screw

Our Self-Tapping Chipboard Screws are a specialized and indispensable fastener engineered specifically for providing superior holding power in low and medium-density wood composites like chipboard, particleboard, and MDF. These screws feature a unique design with a slim shank, a sharp point, and a coarse, deep thread that minimizes the risk of splitting the material while ensuring a fast, secure grip. The countersunk head allows the screw to sit flush with the surface for a clean, professional finish. Finished with a durable blue-white zinc plating, these screws offer excellent corrosion resistance, making them a reliable choice for furniture manufacturing, cabinetry, and general construction.

Product Details

The exceptional performance of our chipboard screws comes from their purpose-built design. The self-tapping capability, enabled by a sharp point and aggressive thread, allows the screw to be driven directly into most wood composites without a pilot hole, significantly speeding up assembly. The coarse thread is designed to engage firmly with wood fibers, providing maximum pull-out resistance. The cross drive (Phillips) head offers a common and reliable interface for standard power tools and hand drivers.

Manufactured primarily from high-quality carbon steel for strength and durability, these screws are available in a vast array of materials, including stainless steel, brass, and aluminum, to meet specific application requirements. The standard blue-white zinc plating provides a bright, clean finish and robust protection against rust and corrosion in indoor environments.
