Screws are components used in metalworking, as part of the vehicle mechanics.

Overview

Boxes of screws contain 100 screws. You can turn a box of screws into 100 screws and vice versa using the crafting menus. Unlike boxes of nails or ammunition, boxes of screws do not provide any encumbrance reductions for you over unboxed screws. They weigh the same amount.

Usage

Screws are used in repairing vehicle parts. This is currently the only use for them.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default 'apocalypse' loot settings, with no luck modifier, and average zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits. Duplicate entries do exist, but have been removed for clarity.
