Drywall Screws are specialized fasteners designed for securing drywall (also known as gypsum board or sheetrock) to wood or metal studs. They have several key features that make them well-suited for this purpose:

Drywall Screw Features:

• Thread Design: They have deep, coarse threads for gripping wood or fine threads for attaching to metal studs.
• Bugle Head: The slightly rounded, conical head helps prevent tearing the drywall paper surface.
• Sharp Tip: Many drywall screws have a self-drilling or self-tapping tip for easier installation.
• Black Phosphate Coating: This protects against rust and corrosion.

Drywall Screw Types:

• Coarse Thread Drywall Screws – Used for wood studs, offering better grip.
• Fine Thread Drywall Screws – Used for metal studs, providing better penetration.
• Self-Drilling Drywall Screws – Designed for use with metal studs without pre-drilling.
• Collated Drywall Screws – Used in screw guns for faster installation.

Drywall Screw Uses:

• Attaching drywall to wood or metal framing.
• Hanging ceiling drywall.
• Light-duty construction projects.
