Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
The screws generally perform well for various projects, with many customers praising the attractive brass finish and ease of installation. However, some users reported issues with the screws being soft and prone to breaking or stripping, especially when using power tools. It is recommended to pre-drill pilot holes and use hand tools to avoid these problems. The quality and performance may be variable, so testing a few screws on scrap material is advisable before committing them to a project.

Pretty, but predrill and prethread
Brass screws are a nice touch for small projects with brass hardware. They are much more likely to break than regular steel screws though, so to help prevent breaking the head off a screw, drill the appropriate pilot hole first, then use a steel screw of the same size as the brass screw you intend to use to "prethread" the screw holes

consider stainless if you don't need brass
Would RecommendBrass is nice visually but the head is just to soft to get a good torque

Thanks for ruining my project
Would Not RecommendProject I’ve been meaning to get to for years ruined in 20 minutes by this garbage product. Screw after screw broke apart in my window frame, even with pilot holes drilled. Whatever happened to quality? These screws snapped like toothpicks, even being screwed slowly and gently into pilot holes. Can’t tell you how beyonduu upset I am at the Hillman brand. They sell a subpar product, but I guess it doesn’t affect them - they’ve got my money. They’re not there to fix my beautiful solid wood window ...

Great screws
The color
Don't buy: these snap easily. All 10x did for me!
Would Not RecommendEvery single one of these I screwed in broke - top snapped off, even when using pre-drilled holes and hand-screwing them in. Different wood types: they broke. Different pre-drilled hole sizes: they broke. The first one that broke was with a drill, so I hand-screwed the rest in. All the remainder that broke after that were hand screwed. I'm not that strong. These are just that brittle.

Use US made fasteners, the quality is much better
Would Not RecommendCheap metal, any kink of pressure will strip the head and make very hard to remove.
