Mustad Panelvit FR Screw 3.5x16mm White Zinc Hardened Core for MDF and Wood

Product Overview

The Mustad Panelvit FR screw 3.5x16 mm with white zinc plating is intended for use in low-density materials such as MDF and thin furniture panels, commonly encountered in carpentry workshops, furniture manufacturing, and OEM assembly lines. Built for demanding conditions, the screw features a specially hardened, elastic core that resists breakage and supports installation in hard wood.

The standout feature is its innovative head design, which provides high resistance against self-loosening and optimizes insertion torque to minimize material stripping. This reduces assembly defects and callbacks when installing in delicate substrates. Particularly suitable for bulk procurement by furniture manufacturers and cabinet assembly plants requiring consistent performance for mass production operations.

Key Features

• Innovative head geometry ? high resistance to self-loosening and prevents material stripping during installation


• Sharp narrow-thread pitch ? maximizes pull-out strength from thin and low-density panels


• Advanced hardening process ? enables installation in very hard wood, reduces risk of breakage


• White zinc plated ? corrosion protection for versatile indoor applications


• Special MUSTAD lubrication ? reduces required installation torque by 50%


• Sharp tip with low-start thread ? gradual penetration minimizes surface damage on panels
