Drywall screws are fasteners that are made for attaching plasterboard or drywall to wooden or metal frames. These screws work better than regular screws because they're designed specifically for this job.
We stock black jap phosphate screws in a range of sizes from 25mm to 100mm in length and 3.5mm to 4.8mm in width. The black coating helps to prevent rust so you can use these screws both inside and outside the property. They have a bugle head (slightly cone-shaped) with a Phillips cross pattern. This design ensures the screw sits flush with the drywall without damaging the surface. We sell the screws in boxes of 200 or 1000 so you can select a volume suitable for whatever project you are taking on.
They are mostly used for hanging drywall sheets on walls and ceilings and for building interior wall partitions. Contractors also use them for creating soffits and dropped ceilings, and tile installers use them for securing the cement backer board before tiling. Drywall screws are also useful for installing wood panelling, making repairs to existing drywall and mounting fixture backing boxes between studs. Drywall screws can be found in almost all new buildings. They're used in homes when they're being built or repaired. Offices, shops, schools and hospitals all have many of these screws hidden in their walls. Hotels often use them because they help builders work faster. People also use these screws when finishing basements, turning attics into rooms or improving garages by adding internal wall finishes.
Many different customers use these types of screws. Tradespeople who put up walls use them every day, and construction workers need them for building inside spaces. Homeowners doing their own repairs use them, and builders always keep some on hand for unexpected requirements. Even those trying home improvement for the first time soon realise how invaluable these screws are.
What makes these screws special is just how firmly they connect the drywall to the frame which makes a smooth finish that regular screws can't match. The threads grip both materials tightly and won't come loose. For the best results, choose the right screw type based on your specific project needs and consider the material you're screwing into, the thickness of your drywall and where you're using them.
