Akdeniz 3.5x18 mm Particleboard and Wood Screw – 1000 Pieces

Akdeniz Chipboard & Wood Screw 3.5×18 mm — 1000 Pieces

Akdeniz 3.5×18 mm Chipboard & Wood Screw is the most widely preferred standard fastener for installing thin panels, trim, skirting boards, and furniture fittings. With its hardened steel body, sharp point, and closely spaced thread design, it drives quickly into material without pre‑drilling and delivers a strong, permanent hold. Its short 18 mm length prevents breakthrough through thin materials. Supplied in a large pack of 1000 — minimising unit cost for serial production, workshops, and continuous use.

Application Guidelines

• Use a PZ1 Pozidriv driver bit; an ill‑fitting bit will damage the head
• Drive at a perfect right angle to the surface; angled entry reduces holding power
• Ensure material thickness exceeds screw length by at least 2–3 mm to prevent breakthrough
• Drill a pilot hole in solid hardwood — recommended to reduce breakage risk
• Reduce torque as the screw nears full seating; avoid splitting the surface or snapping the head
• Choose stainless steel variants for permanent outdoor exposure
• Store in dry, moisture‑free conditions; keep the lid sealed once opened
