ForgeFix Drywall Screws Coarse Thread 4.2 x 65mm Black Phosphate Box 100

The Forgefix Phillips Single Thread Drywall Screws are engineered specifically for drywall applications, offering exceptional performance and reliability. With a durable black phosphate finish, these screws provide improved corrosion resistance, ensuring long-lasting durability in various environments. Available in boxes of 500 and 1,000, each set comes with a Phillips No.2 insert bit for convenience.

Key Features

- Bugle Head Design: The unique bugle head allows these screws to sink effortlessly into dry linings without the need for pre-countersinking. This feature significantly reduces surface damage, enabling a smoother and cleaner finish for your drywall projects.

- Coarse Thread: These screws are equipped with a coarse thread specifically designed for attaching plasterboard, fibreboard, and other insulation boards to wood or steel studding. The sharp point aids in rapid penetration through the plasterboard skin, while the coarse thread enhances holding power, ensuring the board remains securely fastened.

- Phillips Drive: Featuring a Phillips drive with four tapered slots, these screws allow for better torque transmission. The design helps prevent over-tightening; if too much torque is applied, the screwdriver tip will disengage from the screw, protecting both the screw head and the tool from damage.

Applications

The Forgefix Drywall Screws are ideal for fitting dry linings to studding, making them a perfect choice for construction and renovation projects that involve drywall installations. Whether you are working with timber or metal framework, these screws guarantee a strong and reliable hold, facilitating efficient and effective assembly of drywall.

Benefits of Phosphate Coating

The black phosphate finish consists of thin, crystalline layers of phosphate compounds that adhere well to the metal surface. This porous coating not only offers excellent corrosion resistance but also has the ability to absorb supplementary coatings, which enhances the overall appearance and increases resistance to abrasion. Various forms of phosphate solutions, such as zinc, manganese, or iron phosphates, can be utilized, contributing to the screw’s durability.

Overall, Forgefix Phillips Single Thread Drywall Screws are an indispensable resource for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. With their superior design and functionality, they provide an excellent solution for any drywall fastening needs, ensuring a smooth and sturdy installation every time.
