Worked perfectly

Worked as intended

Brass wood screw

Correct size for thin wood frame

Did the job

Did what was needed.

Why use tiny nails?

These small screws work better than nails for use with delicate wood.

good

the right size and they held up good .

works great

I’ll just keep looking

Biggest disappointment was that the package was downsized from 50 to 25 units

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

Brass is nice visually but the head is just to soft to get a good torque

Thanks for ruining my project

Project 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!

Every 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.
