Forgefix DWS75 Phillips Bugle Head Drywall Screw Zinc Plated

Introducing the Forgefix Phillips Twin Fine Thread Drywall Screws, designed specifically for the effective installation of dry linings to studding. These screws feature a durable zinc plated finish that significantly enhances their longevity, protecting them from oxidation and ensuring a longer-lasting performance.

The exceptional Bugle Head design allows these screws to sink easily into plasterboard without the need for countersinking. This feature not only streamlines the installation process but also minimizes surface damage, ensuring a smooth finish. The fine thread design, accompanied by an extremely sharp point, pierces the plasterboard skin effortlessly while also enabling the screws to drill through thin steel base structures.

# Applications and Benefits

These drywall screws are predominantly used for fitting dry linings to metal stud work, making them ideal for various construction and renovation projects. The zinc coating provides an effective barrier against corrosion, acting as a sacrificial anode should the coating sustain damage. Unlike iron oxide, the zinc oxide formed during oxidation does not compromise the integrity of the surface, thereby preventing further deterioration. This action is similar to the natural protection offered to aluminum and stainless steels by their oxide layers.

The Phillips drive design incorporates four tapered slots, allowing a Phillips tip screwdriver to engage the screw effectively. As torque increases, if it reaches a level that could result in over-tightening, the screwdriver tip will naturally wind out of the screw. This unique feature protects both the screw head from damage and ensures a secure fastening without excessive force.

Included with every box of screws is a Phillips No.2 insert bit, ensuring that you have everything needed for a quick and efficient installation. Weighing just 2.45 pounds, these screws are manageable for various DIY and professional applications.
