For thicker work you will need a longer screw to get a proper grip. Check the depth of the material before you start so the point stays hidden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMark through the fitting holes onto the surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStart a small pilot hole with a bradawl or fine drill bit in hard material.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a small pozi bit that fits the recess properly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive gently and stop as soon as the head is flush, as short screws strip easily.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck the fitting is secure and replace any screw that spins without tightening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhere can I use these short wood screws?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThey suit MDF, chipboard, hardwood, softwood, plasterboard, PVCu and sheet metal, indoors and out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the imperial size?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e6 x 1\/2 inch, matching 3.5 x 13mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDo they have corrosion protection?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, they are zinc and yellow passivated with double corrosion resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Securfix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824521675025,"sku":"DS-4309400","price":0.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/7323\/0097\/files\/securfix-multi-purpose-screws-3-5-x-13mm-pack-of-200-1.jpg?v=1792515195","url":"https:\/\/diysmith.co.uk\/products\/securfix-multi-purpose-screws-3-5-x-13mm-pack-of-200","provider":"DIYSmith","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
