1/2 Range 1/2 1/2 1" (25 mm)
3/4 Range 3/4 3/4 1-1/4" (32 mm)

For more information on screw selections, go to www.Kregtool.com/Screws or
simply scan the QR code on the side of your sample screw package.
Tip A 1" screw is recommended for most applications, but if your workpiece is
on the low end of the range, a 3/4" screw might be required to keep the screw tip
from protruding.
Note If your material thickness falls in the range, use the same setup
techniques as the 3/4" range with a 1-1/2" screw.
b. Clamp joints in place to ensure a better nished joint. These examples show face
joints and edge joints.
WARNING When drilling, always ensure the workpiece is clamped securely.
c. Place your screw on the driver tip (E), position the screw in the pocket hole, and
drive the screw until it is fully seated without overdriving.
