Wood Screws, Slotted oval head, Silicon bronze, #8

Wood screws are specialized fasteners designed for joining wooden materials. They feature a tapered shaft and a sharp tip for easy insertion into wood, with coarse threads that grip the material securely. Typically made of steel, brass, or stainless steel, wood screws come in various lengths and head styles, such as flat, round, or oval, to suit different applications. Their design allows for strong connections while minimizing the risk of splitting the wood.

A slotted oval head screw features a rounded head with a single horizontal slot, allowing for easy installation with a flathead screwdriver. The oval shape provides a slightly raised profile, making it aesthetically pleasing and suitable for visible applications. This screw design allows it to sit flush with the surface while offering a decorative finish. Slotted oval head screws are commonly used in woodworking, furniture assembly, and decorative projects, although they can be susceptible to cam-out during installation.
