Kreg 305 Stainless Steel Pocket Screws – 32mm / 1-1/4′, Washer-Head, 100ct

If you want maximum durability in your pocket hole projects, choose stainless steel screws. These are great for use in pressure-treated lumber, or if your project will be exposed to harsh elements outdoors.

Hardwoods like oak, maple, and cherry, on the other hand, are too hard and dense for coarse-thread screws. The aggressive threads tend to tear the wood fibers, which can result in splits in your wood. For these hardwoods, choose Fine Kreg Screws. The threads are less aggressive, but there are more of them to ensure great holding power without splitting

Woods like pine and spruce as known as softwoods. They are not very dense, so they need a screw with deep, aggressive threads that will bite into soft fibers. Coarse Kreg Screws work great for these woods, and are also the preferred choice for sheet goods like plywood and MDF.
