Friction holds screws in. It also makes insertion harder. With wood screws, one should drill a hole in the wood first. Then, the fibers will twist with the screw, and oppose removal more strongly than insertion. In machine screws, the softer washer distributes the force of the screw, permitting higher frictions in the threads without damaging the joined materials.

How does work affect friction?
work is movement, and all movement causes friction, since there is no such thing as a "perfect" or "100% efficient" tool yet.
How is friction an evil?
Friction makes us hard to walk on slopes, it wears out the materials whether they are screws, ball bearings or soles of shoes. Friction also produces heat.
How does the surface of an object affect friction?
the smoother a surface is, the less friction it produces.
