Wood screws
|
Flat heads are countersunk (cone shaped under the head) with a flat top. Phillips drive is x-shaped for installation with a phillips screw driver.
-
Stainless steel 18-8
A corrosion resistant steel alloy. The most common stainless steel for general hardware use.
-
Stainless steel 316
A corrosion resistant steel alloy. A highly corrosion resistant grade of stainless steel. Ideal in salt water and chlorine environments. More expensive than 18-8.
-
Zinc plated steel
A low carbon steel for general use. Zinc plated for moderate corrosion resistance.
-
Brass
Solid brass. An alloy of primarily copper and zinc with good corrosion resistance. Used mostly in decorative and electrical applications. Exact color varies.

Flat heads are countersunk (cone shaped under the head) with a flat top. Frearson drive is x-shaped, similar to (but not compatible with) phillips.

Silicon bronze
Solid bronze. An alloy of copper with greater strength and corrosion resistance than brass. Exact color varies.

Type 17 screws have an auger point. Countersinking nibs aid in material removal. Flat heads are countersunk (cone shaped under the head) with a flat top. Square drive is designed to reduce the risk of cam-out (stripping) and allow single-handed installation.
