Kreg SML-C125 1-1/4-Inch #2 Coarse Screw (1000-Pack)
Kreg's self-tapping screws were designed for its famous pocket-hole joinery, but that's not all they're good for. Kreg's self-tapping auger point eliminates time-consuming pre-drilling, and these screws are made from the highest quality steel, case-hardened and coated with a dri-lube finish. That means less driving torque for you. This coarse-thread screw has a larger thread diameter and provides greater holding power when driving a screw into soft material such as plywood, particle board, MDF, melamine and pine. The washer head offers a great surface area to seat the screw firmly and helps prevent overdriving. They're on the spendy side, but the quality is worth it.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Kreg SML-C125 1-1/4-Inch #2 Coarse Screw (1000-Pack) Reviews
After researching internet for pocket screws, I found Amazon was the cheap by quantity. If you planning to build alot of wood projects then purchase in bulk to save you money and time in long run. Additionally, I like using enough screw to make sure the bookcase is strong enough to move without breaking. I am planning to build several bookcases for the our office and under the stairs so this purchase provide me with enough screws to complete without having to continiously purchase more screws.
Great screw for soft wood and sheet materials. Great time-saver. This is the first time I've been able to simply drive screws without pre-drilling. I've had problems with wood splitting in the past whenever I didn't remember to pre-drill holes.
The Kreg system makes quick work of project asemble. Great screws to use in woodworking projects.
Best to buy in bulk if you find yourself using one particular size. They just work. It's a nice way to join wood and hide the joinery as well. I have YET to break a KREG screw off doing something. What more can a person want in woodworking. The more you buy of them the more you save. I wouldn't use anyone else's screw for pocket hole joinery.
Plus the square (Robertson). I have historically used the "wood screws" sold at home centers, etc, which generally have a Phillips head and a fairly thick shank. These "pocket hole" screws seem to have a much thinner shank and deeper threads (at least on the coarse ones) so they screw in much easier. I got these screws because I anticipate using them for some pocket hole joinery in some pine I have. But I've been using them left and right since they arrived, so I'm sure glad I got the 1000 pack. I suppose they are weaker in some dimension than the wood screws, but how much strength do you need. drive is much better that Phillips for holding on and not stripping. The problem is you have to drill the right sized pilot hole or the head strips fairly easily when the going gets tough.
