Facts & Info - Classic slottet screws

For our fittings, switches, etc., screws are usually included, but maybe you have found an old original fitting at home that you want to mount. We now sell several varieties of wood screws individually. Choose alloy (brass or nickel-treated brass), length and what head shape you need. We offer screws with flat or oval head, depending on which silhouette is desired. All with straight chisels.

For an old-fashioned bracket, you preferably use a screw with straight slots and avoid modern drives. The straight chisel groove not only gives a more typical overall impression to an older bracket, but also facilitates if you need to loosen a screw that is painted over. It is considerably much easier to access a straight chisel track from color than, for example, a cross track.

Since the screws are made of brass (which is a relatively soft material), we recommend that you pre-drill before screwing them in.

The dimensions given in the name are given in English inches, while dimensions in mm are indicated on each screw.
