High Quality Chipboard Screw from China Suppliers - Best Factory Carbon Steel, Various Head Types & Finishes
The Feature of Chipboard
Product Overview
The countersunk/ double countersunk head
The flat-head makes the chipboard screw stay level with the material. In particular, the double countersunk head is designed for increased head strength.
The thin shaft
The thin shaft helps to prevent the material from splitting.
The coarse thread
Compared with other kinds of screws, the thread of the screw MDF is coarser and sharper, which digs deeper and more tightly into the soft material such as particleboard, MDF board, etc. In other words, this helps more part of the material to be embedded in the thread, creating an extremely firm grip.
The self-tapping point
The self-tapping point makes the screw of particle board more easily driven into the surface without a pilot drill hole.
The nibs
The nibs under the head help to cut away any debris for easy insertion and makes the screw countersink flush with the timber.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is a chipboard screw?
A chipboard screw, also known as a particleboard screw or MDF screw, is specifically designed with a countersunk head, a slim shank, an extremely coarse thread, and a self-tapping point for fastening soft wood materials.
What is the benefit of a double countersunk head design?
The flat-head style allows the screw to sit level with the material surface, while the double countersunk head is engineered specifically to increase head strength and durability.
Why do chipboard screws have a thin shaft?
The thin shaft is designed to reduce stress on the material, helping to prevent splitting and cracking when driving the screw into softwoods, particleboard, or MDF.
How does the coarse thread affect the grip of the screw?
The coarse and sharp thread is designed to dig deeper and more tightly into soft materials. This allows more of the material to embed within the thread, creating an exceptionally firm grip.
Do I need to drill a pilot hole before using these screws?
No, the self-tapping point is designed to easily drive the screw into the surface of particleboard and other materials without the need for a pre-drilled pilot hole.
What purpose do the nibs under the head serve?
The nibs under the head help cut away debris during insertion, allowing the screw to sit perfectly flush with the timber surface.
