Thread and bore diameter

Understanding the thread and drill diameter is crucial to achieve the right grip and stability. Make sure the thread of the screw fits snugly in the pre-drilled hole. Pre-drilling prevents the wood from splitting and helps the screw turn smoothly into the material. The drill diameter should be slightly smaller than the screw diameter, but large enough to give the thread sufficient grip.
