Drywall Screws at Fastener Superstore
November 28, 2024
As winter has us moving from outdoor projects to indoor projects, drywall screws may play a larger role in your fastener selection. Made for attaching drywall to wood or metal studs, Fastener SuperStore has the selection you need for the projects you'll be taking on.
Drywall Screws come in four unique styles: Coarse Thread; Fine Thread, Self-Drilling and High Low Threads.
Coarse thread drywall screws come with a sharp point and wide spaced thread for attaching drywall to wood or 25-gauge metal studs. They generally feature bugle heads to allow for countersinking into the drywall. Drive styles include phillips, square and six-lobe (Torx®)
Fine thread drywall screws feature sharp points and more closely spaced threads and are generally used to attach drywall to thin gauge metal studs and tracks. They also are primarily offered with a bugle heads, although there are some options for modified truss, pan and trim heads. Drive styles include phillips, square and six-lobe (Torx®)
Self-drilling drywall screws are used when you need a little more starting power to self-start in harder woods and thicker gauges of metal. All of our options feature a bugle head and a phillips drive.
High-low thread drywall screws feature threads of two heights and require less torque to drive than standard screws. They are more resistant to vibrational loosening, and they reduce the chance of the heads popping. Our options feature bugle heads and phillips drives.
