Screws and Pocket Hole Plugs
Self tapping screws are specially designed for Kreg Joinery.  They feature a self-tapping auger point that eliminates pre-drilling and a flat bottom head that seats flush in the bottom of the pocket-hole. All the screws utilise a number 2 square drill recess.  Manufactured from the highest quality materials, our self-tapping screws have a variety of specifications to join anything from soft woods such as pine to hard woods like oak.

For the times when pocket holes won't be hidden on the backside of your project or you don't want to highlight them decoratively, use the pocket-hole plugs.  The plugs are offered in 7 solid wood pieces and 5 plastic plug covers for use on laminated surfaces.
