Can anyone recommend or does such a thing even exist? I'm having trouble identifying anything with Google.

TIA

You mean dome headed screws ?

You mean dome headed screws ?

If you like or pan head or rounded head, or not countersunk.

Similar to this:

Perhaps Google “pan head woodscrew”. Or give a little more info, so that better suggestions can be made.

A quick google search to confirm what I was thinking are pocket hole screws . Those in your photo are self tapping pan heads .

That “pocket head” is also known as a Robertson head in Canada (and in the USA) where it’s almost a standard screw head. I’ve seen a of furniture held together using screws with that head.

This might help. Spax

Or try washer headed screws.

Axminster do a good range of torx pocket hole screws. They're partially threaded which may / may not be a good thing based on your intended application.

The core of MDF is very soft. I would imagine standard ' bugle head ' screws would be more secure assuming you had used a countersink bit. I love the Robertson head screws but they are hard to get this side of the pond.
