Review on Modified Cabinet with Bronze Exterior Coating by Josh Whitehead

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Too Brittle (Recall applies to #7 2 " screw)

Material must be too brittle or they will break the center when the slightest lateral pressure is exerted on it, for example when the surface gripped by the head is not exactly perpendicular to the axis of the screw. If the screw flexes as you tighten it, it will lock. I've never had a problem with broken GRK case screws, but they weren't a 2" size so I gave them a try.

Pros
  • Torx/Star Drive wood screw head provides twice the torque of Phillips or Square head
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks
