Kreg's self-tapping screws were designed for its famous pocket-hole joinery, but that's not all they're good for. Kreg's self-tapping auger point eliminates time-consuming pre-drilling, and these screws are made from the highest quality steel, case-hardened and coated with a dri-lube finish. That means less driving torque for you. This coarse-thread screw has a larger thread diameter and provides greater holding power when driving a screw into soft material such as plywood, particle board, MDF, melamine and pine. The washer head offers a great surface area to seat the screw firmly and helps prevent overdriving. They're on the spendy side, but the quality is worth it.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Customer Rating:      Summary: The RIGHT screw makes a BIG difference Comment: Great screw for soft wood and sheet materials. I've had problems with wood splitting in the past whenever I didn't remember to pre-drill holes. This is the first time I've been able to simply drive screws without pre-drilling. Great time-saver.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Kreg -SML 1-!/4-inch Coarse Screws Comment: Great screws to use in woodworking projects. The Kreg system makes quick work of project asemble.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Best square drive screws available Comment: I have YET to break a KREG screw off doing something. They just work. What more can a person want in woodworking? I wouldn't use anyone else's screw for pocket hole joinery.
Best to buy in bulk if you find yourself using one particular size. The more you buy of them the more you save. It's a nice way to join wood and hide the joinery as well.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Cool little screws Comment: I got these screws because I anticipate using them for some pocket hole joinery in some pine I have. But I've been using them left and right since they arrived, so I'm sure glad I got the 1000 pack.
I have historically used the "wood screws" sold at home centers, etc, which generally have a Phillips head and a fairly thick shank. The problem is you have to drill the right sized pilot hole or the head strips fairly easily when the going gets tough.
These "pocket hole" screws seem to have a much thinner shank and deeper threads (at least on the coarse ones) so they screw in much easier. Plus the square (Robertson?) drive is much better that Phillips for holding on and not stripping.
I suppose they are weaker in some dimension than the wood screws, but how much strength do you need?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Best Pocket Screws Comment: Great pockets screws. Work great in soft wood which I use a lot. Stick with the fine ones for hard wood.
