Fischer 670642 60 mm Metal screws are designed for reliable wood fastening in construction and woodworking tasks. Each pack contains 200 screws with a nominal thread diameter of 5 mm and a thread length of 36 mm, providing secure connections for chipboard, particleboard and other wooden components. The screws are made of metal with a T-profile head suitable for driven installation and deliver consistent performance for joinery, furniture assembly and general carpentry work.
Advantages
These 60 mm Fischer metal screws offer uniform thread engagement and a defined thread length that helps prevent over-penetration while ensuring firm hold in wood substrates. The T-profile head ensures stable seating and efficient torque transfer during driving, reducing cam-out risk when using compatible screwdrivers or bits. Supplied in a bulk pack of 200 pieces, they reduce downtime for medium and large projects and are suitable for repeated professional use.
Suitable for
- Joining chipboard, MDF and particleboard panels
- Furniture assembly and cabinetry
- Securing wooden frames and substructures
- General carpentry and renovation tasks
When it may not be suitable
These screws are specified for wood applications and may not be ideal for use in concrete, masonry, or metal-to-metal connections without appropriate anchors or fasteners. Corrosion resistance depends on the metal finish; for long-term outdoor exposure in aggressive environments, a specially coated or stainless steel fastener is preferable.
Key specifications
- Length: 60 mm
- Thread diameter: 5 mm
- Thread length: 36 mm
- Material: metal (steel)
- Head profile: T-profile (for driven installation)
- Quantity per pack: 200 pieces
How to use
Select a compatible bit or screwdriver matching the T-profile head and set a controlled torque on the driver to avoid stripping. Pre-drilling is optional depending on wood density and thickness; for hardwoods or when close clearances are required, drill a pilot hole with an appropriate diameter and depth. Drive the screw until the head seats flush or slightly countersunk depending on the application, taking care not to over-tighten to avoid splitting the wood.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm screw length and thread diameter match the material thickness and load requirements.
- Assess whether the metal finish provides suitable corrosion resistance for the intended environment.
- Decide if a bulk pack of 200 pieces fits project scale and storage needs.
Usage recommendations
Use these screws with power drivers set to a controlled torque and paired with the correct bit for the T-profile head. For best results in dense woods, pre-drill pilot holes; for indoor cabinetry and furniture, the specified thread length and diameter provide secure fastening without unnecessary splitting when installed correctly.
