Metallics JFW49 6 x 1-1/4 in. Flat Head Slotted Wood Screws - Steel Zinc - Each

The JFW49 #6 x 1-1/4 inch flat head wood screws ship 100 to a jar, and 100 count is the order minimum. If you need a different count or a different size in the JFW line, other sizes and quantities are available by request.

Yes. The JFW49 has a flat head designed to seat flush in a countersunk hole, with a head height of 0.083 in. and a head diameter of 0.244 to 0.279 in. The tapered point lets it start in wood without a pilot in soft stock, though hardwood still wants a pilot hole.

The drive is a single slot, 0.039 to 0.048 in. wide and 0.024 to 0.038 in. deep. A standard small flat blade tip, roughly 3/16 in. wide and thin enough to bottom in that slot, drives it. A #2 Phillips will not engage, so bring a flat bit.

These are steel with a zinc finish, which is a dry-location or mildly protected coating. For exterior, pressure treated lumber, or wet locations, step up to a stainless or hot dip galvanized wood screw instead; zinc plating will corrode in those conditions.

Head, slot, and thread dimensions follow ASME B18.6.1, with the thread conforming to ASME B18.6.1-1997. The record also flags the JFW49 as Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, with country of origin China. If your spec requires domestic melt and manufacture rather than Buy American clause compliance, verify that against your contract language.

Slotted is what you want when you are matching existing slotted hardware, doing restoration or trim work where a cross recess would look wrong, or hand driving where you want feel and control. For production driving with an impact or drill, a Phillips or square drive seats better and cams out less; the JFW49 is a slotted drive only.

The jar of 100 is listed at 0.46 lbs, in a container measuring 3 x 3 x 3.6 in. Small enough to live in a van drawer or a gang box tray without eating space.
