Dewalt DW255 Drywall Screwdriver 0-5300 Rpm

Product Description

The DEWALT DW255 is a high-speed drywall screwdriver designed for fastening drywall panels to wood and metal framing. It operates at up to 5,300 RPM, delivering the speed needed for production-rate drywall installation. The tool is built for repetitive screw-driving applications where consistent depth control and driver speed are critical. At 4.15 pounds, it is light enough for extended overhead and wall work without excessive fatigue. Licensed drywall installers, finish carpenters, and general contractors are the primary users of this tool on both residential and light commercial jobsites.

The DW255 is suited for single-layer and double-layer drywall applications on wood stud and metal track framing systems. It is commonly used by drywall hangers driving coarse-thread and fine-thread drywall screws into standard 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch gypsum board. The variable speed and high RPM range make it adaptable for both floor-to-ceiling wall work and ceiling deck installations where volume fastening is required.
