Great for hinges.Coarse thread for greater holding power and faster driving. Common project applications: remodeling, fencing, storage, cabinets, framing, hinges, hardware, locks, and other non-wood projects. Used for connecting wood to wood.
Metal wood screws are superior to nails because they have threads instead of being smooth like most nails. This lets them grip surrounding wood with much more power, offering greater strength than nails. Wood screw threads are so effective they draw the two halves of a joint together tightly, eliminating the need for clamps in a way that nails can't match. Combine screws and glue and you'll have an amazingly strong wood joint. And because screws are installed with twisting action delivered by a drill or hand driver, you get none of the destructive pounding that comes with hammer-driven nails.
