TruBind Aluminum Chicago Screw and Post Sets | 1-1/2 inch Post Length | 3/16 inch Post Diameter | Silver-Colored | 100 Screws and 100 Posts

Receiving Aluminum hollow post screw not threaded all the way. The slotted screw.head strips easily too . Seller sent Items fast .though the material was kinda cheap. Luckily there was enough parts shipped that wish some extra finessing; I was able to finish my project. I gave 2- 3 stars for the quality of the parts. It very easy to damage these parts if not careful .

Thanks to an earlier review, I bought these to attach a long line of Billy bookcases to each other. They are aluminum, and therefore a little soft. Make sure your pilot hole is not too tight a fit because these Chicago screws can get damaged if you have to pound them in. I used a 13/64" drill bit for the pilot holes and the screws slid right in. Also, I found it necessary to wax the threads of the male screw piece. Just rub the threads around on a candle. It makes it so much easier to thread. Before the waxing I was unable to separate two pieces I had put together to test them! And being aluminum, it is easy to strip the head of the slotted screw if you have to apply a lot of muscle to fasten or unfasten these. So learn from my experience, and make it easy on yourself. These are great for my intended purpose, and I am very happy with the purchase.

We use these posts to bind large sets of drawings. They are very sturdy and are of good quality. We buy varying sizes because some drawings are 50 pages and some are 150 pages so there is a need for different lengths. These are reusable and recyclable.They do require a screwdriver to tighten and remove them.

These are perfect! I love how it comes in a set. The price isnt bad neither. I made my scrapbooks from scratch, I used these aluminum screws for the binding. It took me over 2 months to think of a efficient way to easily bind my books at home. For scrapbook purposes, I recommend getting a shorter screw for the spine (all the fill ins on the scrapbook paper make it seem like a thicker book). I ordered screws just a little bit longer that I needed, and I ended up using alot of spine fill to compensate all that extra room.

I have bought these screws in the past for engineering plans and needed longer ones. They meet the needs and were simple to use. These screws work especially well for large sets of plans.

Should work well for holding whirligig together as long as you don't over tighten them

workin' fine

Strong and well priced, but strips if overtightened. I recommend hand tightening only
