McFeely's Boat-Building Silicon Bronze Screws are engineered for marine woodworking, boat construction, and other applications where corrosion resistance and reliable wood fastening are essential. Made from marine-grade Alloy 651 Silicon Bronze, these #6 x 1 in. screws provide dependable performance in moisture-prone and marine environments. The 1,000-count package is ideal for boat builders, woodworkers, and high-volume fastening projects.

Marine-Grade Silicon Bronze Construction

Manufactured from Alloy 651 Silicon Bronze, these boat-building screws provide excellent corrosion resistance for demanding marine applications. Silicon bronze is a proven choice for boat construction and marine woodworking because it performs well where fasteners are exposed to moisture and corrosive conditions.

Full-Body Shank for Boat Building

These specialized screws feature a full-body-diameter shank that is preferred by boat builders. The shank diameter directly beneath the head matches the outside diameter of the screw threads. This design allows the shank to fill the clearance hole normally drilled for the fastener, helping create a tighter seal around the screw and the surrounding wood.

Cut Threads for Reliable Wood Fastening

The cut-thread design provides dependable engagement in wood while the full-body shank supports proper installation through the clearance portion of the joint. Threads extend approximately two-thirds of the screw's shank length, making these fasteners well suited for traditional boat-building techniques and marine woodworking projects.

Proper Installation

Proper drilling is important when installing boat-building screws. Drill a body hole sized for the screw shank along with a separate pilot hole for the threaded portion. Using the appropriate body-hole and pilot-hole sizes helps the screw seat correctly, reduces the risk of splitting, and promotes a secure wood-to-screw fit.

Installation Note: Drill a body hole for the screw shank and a separate pilot hole for the threaded portion of the screw.
