Our product range contains a wide range of Drywall Screws

Drywall Screws

Drywall Screw is a specialized self-tapping screw with a cylindrical shaft. These screws almost always have a Phillips Bulge Head rather than a slotted head, which provides additional control for installers. In addition of a standard drill, installers also use a tool known as a drywall dimpler, which has an adjustable nose to install a drywall screw without tearing the paper on each sheet. A standard drywall screw can be readily identified by its black finish. This black coloring comes from a phosphate mineral coating that is applied to these screws. This coating helps to minimize rusting and corrosion as the screws are exposed to wet joint compound or paint.

Features

1)The primary benefit offered by drywall screws is their Bugle Head. This means that the entire screw lies flush with the surface of the sheet, creating a smooth and even finish.
2)Less prone to getting pulled through the wood due to Bugle Head.
3)This type of head also helps prevent the drywall screw from breaking the paper surface, a common problem with nails.
4)Drives fast and efficient.
5)The black head adds to the decorative appeal.
6)Fairly thin, so they are less likely to split the wood.
7)Threaded through entire length thereby maximizing gripping power.
8)Good Corrosion resistance due to black phosphate coating.
9)Easy to install and remove.
10)Head does not sink into the wood easily as does with other wood screws.
11)Precise cutting edges to improve drill performance with less effort.
12)Relatively Cheap.
13)At least 3 times the pull-out strength of nails.

Applications
