Poor quality Wood Screw, Flat, #4x3/4L, Zinc, Pk100
Bought these to tap the holes for the brass screws. PFC PRT # 00500
-0412 - 451, PFC LOT NO. (K) 16011301, MFG Lot No.: 950199 - 03 Total waste resulting in 3 broken off screws before I gave up. Won't name the vendor since they credited my card w/o fuss for a grand total of $3.10. I'm never ordering from them again though. Anyone know of a source for: steel #4 wood screw flat head flat or square Robertson or Torx (_not_ Phillips) drive William |

Did they break in pine or oak?

I'd expect at least 10%-20% failure rate unless you have the patience of Job. Managed to find a pack of 10 made in the U.S.A. Phillips head screws from all the hardware I brought up from my Father's estate --- haven't broken the 9 I was able to drive --- now I just need to pick up the 1/4" screw extractor when Woodcraft gets it in.
