Hillman Fas-N-Tite Coarse Thread Drywall Screws 190 Piece

Overview

This is a Hillman Fas-N-Tite #6 x 1-5/8 inch coarse thread drywall screw, sold 190 to a box, built for attaching drywall and gypsum board to wood studs.

Coarse thread and a black phosphate carbon steel build put this in the standard wood stud drywall screw category, distinct from the fine thread screws made for steel track. The listing repeats several of the same points, but the core details are a #2 Phillips bugle head and a 1-5/8 inch length, enough to reach through a single layer of drywall into a wood stud.

• #6 x 1-5/8 inch, coarse thread
• Black phosphate carbon steel
• Phillips bugle head
• 190 pieces per box

Who it's for

Suits a DIYer or contractor hanging drywall on wood framed walls and ceilings. Not the pick for steel stud framing, where fine thread screws are the better match.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

The bugle head seats flush without tearing the drywall paper facing, and the black phosphate coating on the carbon steel body is aimed at joint compound and paint adhesion plus interior corrosion resistance rather than outdoor exposure. Coarse thread and a sharp point are matched to grip wood fibers directly.
