Flat Head Socket Furniture Screw

The flat head socket furniture screw is used for joining parts made of wood and wood-based materials. The screw head has an internal hex socket recess, which provides high tightening torque. This screw creates a strong threaded joint capable of withstanding increased loads. The flat head barely rises above the surface and can be covered with decorative plastic caps.

Design features and materials

The furniture screw is a metal shaft with partial metric thread and a flat head with an internal recess. It is installed into a prepared threaded hole or secured with nuts and washers. The screw has a flat tip. Thread diameter ranges from M6 to M8, length of the threaded working part from 16 to 110 mm.

Materials:

• Steel without protective coating or with coating.
• Steel with a zinc layer applied by electroplating. Zinc plating is a simple and effective way to protect metal from corrosion.
• Steel with an additional brass layer. Electroplated brass coating protects the metal from corrosion and gives it good decorative qualities.

Material selection depends on operating conditions. Increased humidity or a chemically aggressive environment requires a material with additional protection.

Application possibilities

Furniture screws are used in the assembly of case and upholstered furniture, as well as in other industrial manufacturing sectors. The product ensures reliable fixation of parts, prevents shifting and ensures durability of the joint. The screw can also be used in the assembly of building structures.
