Drywall screws, also known as wallboard screws, are specialized fasteners designed specifically for gypsum boards, lightweight partitions, and other decorative renovations, widely used in home improvement, commercial fit-outs, and industrial decoration fields.
Using carbon steel as the primary material—with some high-end variants adopting stainless steel—they come in a full range of specifications and require no complex pre-treatment, making them the preferred accessory for connecting gypsum boards to framing. Featuring a bugle head design, they can countersink perfectly into the surface of the gypsum board; the sharp point eliminates the need for pre-drilling, and the deepened Phillips drive prevents slipping, which accommodates power tools to boost installation efficiency.
Based on thread type, they can be divided into fine-thread types suitable for metal studs and coarse-thread types suitable for wood studs. In terms of surface treatment, they are classified into phosphated (suitable for dry indoors) and zinc-plated (suitable for humid scenarios). They offer reliable performance and a firm connection, balancing practicality and cost-effectiveness. Their core applications include the installation of gypsum board partitions and ceilings, as well as the assembly of lightweight partitions and renovation repairs, covering a wide variety of decoration scenarios.
