Kreg Blue-Kote pocket-hole screws are purpose-built fasteners for pocket-hole joinery, the popular woodworking technique that joins wood pieces invisibly at their edges. These screws excel in both indoor and outdoor projects, including work with pressure-treated lumber, making them a reliable choice for furniture, cabinetry, and structural assemblies where durability matters.
The Blue-Kote finish delivers exceptional corrosion protection with three anti-corrosion layers, providing rust resistance up to 400% greater than traditional zinc-plated screws. This superior protection makes them the ideal choice for a wide variety of indoor and outdoor projects.
Features and Benefits

- Square Drive Design: The No. 2 square recess provides deep engagement that reduces cam-out, ensuring secure fastening and easy, consistent driving power.
- No Pre-Drilling Required: Self-tapping auger point lets you place and drive without pre-drilling, speeding up pocket-hole assembly.
- Maxi-Loc Washer Head: Flush seating in the pocket hole bottom creates a clean, professional finish without protruding fastener heads.
