Do It 702161 Drywall Screw Fine Thread 1 Lb Box

Product Description

The DO IT 702161 is a fine-thread bugle-head drywall screw designed for smooth driving and strong holding power in drywall, plywood, softwood, and light-gauge metal studs ranging from 20 to 25 gauge. The No. 2 Phillips recess drive reduces cam-out during installation. Each screw is constructed of hardened steel produced through heat treatment and quenching, resulting in a fastener that resists wear, corrosion, and abrasion. A phosphate finish adds a layer of surface protection. This box contains 1 pound of screws and is intended for interior applications.

These screws are well suited for residential and light commercial interior work. Typical applications include attaching drywall panels to wood framing or 20- to 25-gauge metal studs, fastening plywood sheathing, and securing softwood assemblies. The fine thread pattern provides a tighter bite in both wood and thin metal, reducing the chance of stripping in lower-density substrates. The standard bugle head countersinks cleanly into drywall face paper without tearing.

Key Features

• Fine thread design for greater holding power in wood and 20- to 25-gauge metal studs
• Standard bugle head countersinks flush without tearing drywall face paper
• No. 2 Phillips recess drive for compatibility with common screw guns and drills
• Hardened steel construction via heat treatment and quenching for durability
• Phosphate finish for added surface corrosion resistance
• Rated for interior use only

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for interior drywall installation applications involving wood framing or 20- to 25-gauge metal stud construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall hangers, carpenters, and general contractors using a variable-speed screw gun or drill with a No. 2 Phillips bit. Set the clutch depth to avoid overdriving and breaking the drywall face paper. These screws are rated for interior use only and should not be used in exterior or high-moisture environments. Keep fasteners dry during storage to preserve the phosphate finish.
