Tips
6 Tips to Reduce Wood Splitting
Test Pieces
1
Test the joint with some scrap workpieces cut from the same stock as your fi nal workpiece.
Make sure you're using Kreg Screws
2
Kreg screws have several features designed to limit/eliminate wood splitting in your joints.
Use Fine Thread Screws in Hardwood
3
Coarse Thread screws displace more wood thanks to a more aggressive thread pattern.
Screw it In, Back it Out
4
By driving your screw half way in, back out, and then in again, you'll reduce excess wood in the
hole and reduce the chance for splitting.
Reduce Friction
5
By applying some bee's wax or other lubricant to the screw, you'll reduce the friction of the
screw entering the workpiece.
Clamp, Clamp, Clamp
6
Correctly clamping your joints reduce workpiece movement/vibration, both of which can cause splitting.
