The drywall screw is a fastener that is widely used to secure building materials. They are generally used for building materials such as gypsum boards. Gypsum board is a building material consisting of gypsum and other minerals pressed between thick paper. Drywall screws can be used to fasten drywall to wood or metal framing members, and are designed to minimize pits in the wall surface. Traditional nails tend to leave small holes or dents in drywall, and can even loosen over time.

Advantages of drywall screws

Drywall screws are threaded to grip drywall and framing members tightly for a more secure and durable installation over time. Drywall screws are concealed with mud and sandpapered when dry.

In a typical installation, drywall screws are placed at 16-inch (40.6 cm) intervals on the center of each panel. This 16-inch increment represents the center of each framing member or stud. After all drywall screws are installed, use caulk to complete the wall finish. Caulk is applied to the screw holes and the joints between each panel. After the primary mixture has dried, the walls can be sanded smooth and painted with sandpaper. For drywall repairs, sponge drywall screws can be used. The main advantage of drywall screws is the countersunk head, which means the entire screw is flush with the paper surface, creating a smooth, even surface finish. The countersunk head also helps prevent the drywall screw from damaging the paper surface, which is a common problem with regular nails.


Types of drywall screws

There are two basic types of drywall screws for installers to choose from." W" type devices or wood screws have wide, coarse threads. They are used in wood frame construction and their coarse threads help to grip the wood firmly." Type "S" screws are designed for use in steel framing members. They have a sharp slotted mouth that easily penetrates steel framing, and a fine thread designed to penetrate steel.
