MPN: 447177
Barcode: 5024763203299
Overview:
Triton P/HC Zinc Pocket Hole Screws 8 x 1½" (38mm) are designed for creating strong, hidden joints with pocket hole jigs in furniture making and general interior joinery. Supplied in a box of 250, they’re ideal for building cabinets, frames and carcasses or joining boards for cupboards and units.
Each screw features a coarse thread for excellent grip in softwoods and sheet materials, and a wide washer head that pulls joints up tight without pulling through the pocket. The zinc plating provides rust resistance for internal use and light moisture exposure, and the screws are compatible with most major pocket hole jig systems, including Triton.

How to Use
Set your pocket hole jig to suit the timber thickness and drill the pocket holes following the jig manufacturer’s instructions.
Select the 1½" (38mm) screws for standard thickness boards where a full-strength joint is required without excessive breakthrough.
Clamp the workpieces securely so the joint cannot move while driving the screw.
Drive the pocket hole screw using the appropriate bit until the washer head pulls the joint faces firmly together.
Avoid over-tightening to prevent stripping threads in softer materials – let the coarse thread and washer head do the work.

What materials are these 1½" pocket hole screws best for?
• They’re ideal for softwood and most sheet materials such as MDF, chipboard and plywood typically used in cabinet and furniture construction.

• Yes, they are generally compatible with most major pocket hole jig systems, as long as the screw length and gauge match the recommended settings.
Are they suitable for outdoor projects?
