Brass Phillips Flat Head Screws for Wood

Brass screws are corrosion resistant in wet environments, electrically conductive, and nonmagnetic. All are beveled under the head for use in countersunk holes. They press threads into material for a tight, secure hold. To prevent splitting, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw. Length is measured from the top of the head.
