#8 x 1/2" Solid Brass Flat Head Philips Wood Screw (1/2" to 1-1/2" in Listing), 100 Pack (#8 x 1/2")

I have been working on a cedar woodworking project for a few weeks and figured I could save some money by buying these brass screws through Amazon. Although I saved quite a bit of money as compared to the ones I purchased a big box store the screw heads stripped out occasionally. All the screws were installed using a countersink bit in the same soft cedar. Even with extra care these screws still stripped out about 10% of the time and required replacement. The big box store screws were also solid brass. I don't why but the brass appears softer and therefore more prone to head damage. A money saver if you are willing to do the extra work and replace the damaged ones. The customer service contacted me and appeared to very concerned about this problem . For this I will give them 5 Stars. They really take Amazon feedback seriously.

I bought these to build a tack trunk for a horse friend. The screws themselves seem fine, I drilled and countersunk the holes and they drove in fine. My issue is the description says 100 pack, the box, which arrived sealed, says quantity 100 but there were only 66 screws in the pack. Luckily I only needed 50 for the build but this was supposed to be for two trunks.Update: I contacted the seller and they promptly sent out a replacement box of screws. Excellent customer support.

I opened the box of these to check them out. I am using them to build a wooden boat. The quality seems very consistant and every screw is the same as the other, except one. I counted out 100, 99 being philips head screws and one being a standart screw driver slot and the threads on this one are not complete, as if a bad or incomplete screw was tossed in with the good. I have not used these screw, if I encounter and quality issues in use, I will try to update my review. The color and consistency is of brass and the screw where the threads were not finished was brass color all the way through.

Heads strip very easily.

Nice to be able to find this hard to find size. Quality is good. Price is good.

Fast service, good price.

Good hardware and quick ship!

Good product
