8G Brass Wood Screws – Decorative Strength and Premium Finish for Fine Woodworking

These 8G Brass Countersunk Wood Screws are premium, highly aesthetic fasteners designed to provide strong, yet elegant, joins in fine woodworking and hardware installation. Available in short-to-medium lengths from 1 inch up to 2 inches, they are versatile for assembling and mounting standard-thickness materials.

The defining feature is the Polished Brass finish, which offers a brilliant, warm aesthetic that resists light corrosion and makes the screw a statement piece. The 8 Gauge diameter provides good structural support, while the countersunk flat head is designed to sit perfectly flush with the wood surface, achieving a clean, high-end finish when properly installed. The coarse thread ensures strong, long-lasting holding power in wood substrates.

Application Instructions

• Drilling: ALWAYS pre-drill a pilot hole to prevent the screw from snapping off or the wood from splitting.

• Driving: Use a hand screwdriver or a power driver set to a low torque setting. DO NOT overdrive or use high-impact settings.

• Setting: Drive the screw until the head is fully seated flush with the wood surface.

• Safety: Wear safety glasses during installation.

Pro Tips

• Pre-drilling is mandatory; the pilot hole should be slightly smaller than the screw core to ensure sufficient grip without breaking the screw head.

• For the highest quality finish, use a dedicated countersink bit before driving the screw to ensure the head sits perfectly flush.

• Clean the screw heads immediately after installation to remove any metal shavings or oils before applying a topcoat.

• Use a small amount of wax or soap on the threads to further ease driving.
