Hillman Fasteners 116966 Multi-material Screw 10x2.5 68 Pack

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 116966 is a multi-material interior screw designed for trades and installers who need a single fastener that performs across wood, masonry, drywall, and plastic substrates. This is a No. 10 x 2.5-inch wafer head screw with a star drive recess and a yellow zinc finish. The wafer head profile sits low and wide, distributing load across the surface without pulling through. Star drive reduces cam-out during high-torque driving, making these well-suited for cordless drill or impact driver use. Each package contains 68 screws.

These screws are intended for interior applications across residential and light commercial construction and finishing work. Common uses include securing furring strips to masonry, fastening wood framing components, attaching plastic trim or electrical boxes to wood substrates, and general drywall assembly. The multi-material designation means a single screw type can move between substrate types on the same job without swapping fasteners. Carpenters, finish trades, and general contractors are the primary installers.

Compatibility

Designed for interior multi-material fastening applications involving wood, masonry, drywall, and plastic substrates in residential and light commercial settings.

Installation Notes

These screws are installed by carpenters, finish trades, and general contractors using a star drive bit and a cordless drill or impact driver. Confirm substrate type and depth before selecting pilot hole size, particularly when driving into masonry. For drywall applications, control driver torque to avoid overdriving and breaking the paper face. Always follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing and load requirements.
