Wood screw drives
The two basic drive designs are single slot and crosshead, crossheads are normally either ‘Philips’ or ‘Pozidrive’, these require specific types of screwdriver although a Philips driver can be used on Pozidrive screws. It is always important to use the correct size of screw driver to ensure that the workpiece and screw are not damaged.
Head shapes.
Types of wood screws: Countersunk heads can be concealed below the woods surface; raised heads are countersunk with a slight domed head; round heads rest on the surface.
Threading on the shank is designed specifically for wood; wood threads have a tapered screw while sheet-metal screws have mainly a parallel thread. Wood type screws are also normally used for securing into wall plugs. Screws for chipboard usually have 2 threads the full length of the shank.
The length of screw is taken from where the screw will sit on the surface of the material to the point of the screw.
