A traditional Article 1, ’finishing screw’, manufactured by Guest Keen Nettlefolds (G.K.N) of Birmingham and therefore new-old stock, this particular batch of lovely ‘antique wood screws’, is well suited to conservation or restoration projects whereby a traditional vintage finish is required.
These slotted wood screws are manufactured from ‘bright mild steel’ and are grey in appearance. Vintage Grade’ screws are no longer manufactured in Birmingham (UK) and are often described by joiners, cabinets makers and restorers alike as being superior in quality & finish.
Unlike new ‘Factory Best’ wood screws, these are old stocks and can sometimes display signs of age, patina and very light surface rust, due to their environmental surroundings, authenticity & oxidation over time and therefore screws are photographed to assist you with selecting the right product.
As with all slotted wood screws, for best results Screwsline recommends pre-drilling an appropriate pilot hole (both soft & hardwood) prior to application.
