An extrusion screw 16 is mounted for rotation about an axis 18 within hollow barrel 12. The extrusion screw 16 has a major diameter, a minor diameter defining a minor circumferential surface (MCS) of the screw 16, and material pushing threads that are spaced axially and have a normal height `h` extending outwardly from the MCS of the screw into rotatable contact with the inner cylindrical wall 14 of the barrel 12.
