Why the Right Screw Matters More Than the Right Timber

Most woodworkers spend hours choosing the perfect timber. Whether it's hardwood for a dining table, treated pine for a deck, or plywood for cabinetry, we all know the material makes a difference.

But here's something that's often forgotten...

The screw holding it all together can make just as much difference.

Cheap Screws Can Cost You More

We've all experienced it.

• The driver bit slips.
• The screw head strips.
• The screw snaps halfway into the timber.
• The coating rusts after only a short time outdoors.

Suddenly a simple project becomes frustrating, expensive and time-consuming.

A few dollars saved on fasteners can quickly disappear when you're replacing damaged timber or removing broken screws.

Robertson Square Drive Makes the Job Easier

At Screw it Screws, we specialise in Robertson square-drive screws because they simply work better.

The square-drive recess gives the driver bit a positive grip, meaning:

• Less cam-out and slipping.
• Better control when driving screws.
• Faster installation.
• Fewer damaged screw heads.
• Easier one-handed driving when positioning workpieces.

Whether you're building furniture, installing cabinetry or constructing outdoor projects, that extra control makes a noticeable difference.

Strong Connections Start with Quality Fasteners

Timber naturally expands and contracts with changing temperatures and moisture.

A quality screw helps keep joints tight and secure for years.

Our screws are designed to provide reliable holding power while making installation smooth and efficient, so you can spend more time building and less time fixing problems.

Invest in Your Project

You might spend hundreds—or even thousands—of dollars on timber, tools and finishes.

Using quality fasteners is one of the simplest ways to protect that investment.

After all, every project is only as strong as the fasteners holding it together.

Build It Once. Build It Right.

Whether you're a professional tradesperson or a weekend DIY enthusiast, using quality Robertson square-drive screws will make your projects easier to assemble and built to last.

At Screw it Screws, we believe good woodworking deserves good fasteners—and that's why Robertson square-drive screws are all we sell.
