Cam Screws

A cam screw is a short machine screw used with a cam lock fitting in flat-pack and knock-down furniture. Its head locates in the cam barrel so a partial turn draws the two panels together.

It pairs with cam locks and dowels to assemble ready-to-assemble cabinets, wardrobes and office furniture. Flat-pack furniture producers buy it for repeated, tool-simple assembly.
