In this segment of the video, the focus is on the best screws for particle board and MDF. Particle board offers high tensile strength and versatility in applications, although it is susceptible to expansion and discoloration from moisture. The benefits of using particle board include affordability and stability over plywood. For screws, materials like carbon steel, brass, or stainless steel, with diameters ranging from 3mm to 6mm and lengths from 12mm to 200mm, are suitable. Various head styles like double flat, countersunk, overall head, and pan head are available in gauges 8 or 10. Surface treatment options include white nickel-plated, black oxide, zinc-coated, and wax finishes for effective application on particle board or MDF.
