Overview:

Triton P/HC Zinc Pocket Hole Screws 8 x 1¼" (32mm) are designed for creating strong, concealed joints with pocket hole jigs in furniture and cabinet construction. The 32mm length is ideal for standard board thicknesses commonly used in carcasses, shelves and frames.

Each screw features a coarse thread for excellent grip in softwoods and sheet materials, plus a wide washer head that pulls the joint tight without pulling through the pocket. 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 for the board thickness and drill the pockets as per the jig manufacturer’s instructions.

• Choose 1¼" (32mm) screws for standard panel thicknesses where a secure joint is needed without over-penetration.

• Clamp the workpieces firmly so the joint cannot move while fixing.

• Drive the screw using the appropriate driver bit until the washer head pulls the joint faces snugly together.

• Do not over-tighten; allow the coarse thread and washer head to do the clamping to avoid stripping the material.

Triton 8 x 1¼" Pocket Hole Screws 494580 – Key FAQs

• What thickness of material are these 1¼" screws best for?
  • They’re ideal for standard cabinet and furniture boards where you’re joining panels of typical carcass thickness with pocket hole joints.

• Are they compatible with other pocket hole jig brands?
  • Yes, they work with most major pocket hole jigs, provided the screw length and gauge match the jig’s recommended settings.

• Can these screws be used outdoors?
  • They are zinc plated for internal use and light moisture exposure. For fully external or very damp conditions, a dedicated exterior-grade pocket hole screw is recommended.

• Why use coarse thread screws for pocket holes?
  • Coarse threads grip better in softwood and sheet materials, giving a stronger hold and reduced risk of stripping compared with fine thread screws in these substrates.

• What’s the advantage of the washer head design?
  • The wide washer head spreads the load, pulls the joint tight and helps prevent the head from burying too deeply or pulling through the pocket hole.

• How many screws are in this pack?
  • This is a large trade pack containing 500 screws, ideal for busy workshops and repeat cabinet or furniture builds.
