Hillman Fasteners 42403 Drywall Screw 6x1.25in 100 Pack

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 42403 is a coarse-thread drywall and multi-use screw designed for attaching drywall panels to wood framing. The Phillips bugle head drives flush with the board surface without tearing the paper face, reducing the need for excessive joint compound. Each screw is made from hardened steel for consistent drive performance and resistance to stripping. This pack contains 100 screws at a size of number 6 by 1.25 inches, making it a practical quantity for residential and light commercial drywall work. It is installed by drywall hangers and general contractors using a variable-speed screw gun or drill with a Phillips bit.

This screw is suited for single-layer drywall applications over wood studs and blocking. The 1.25-inch length is a standard choice for attaching 1/2-inch drywall panels to framing lumber. The coarse thread provides reliable pull-through resistance in wood substrates. The multi-use designation also makes this screw appropriate for light wood-to-wood fastening tasks where a bugle head profile is acceptable. Sold in a 100-count pack, this quantity fits routine patch work, small rooms, or supplemental fastening during larger jobs.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall hangers or general contractors using a variable-speed screw gun or drill fitted with a number 2 Phillips bit. Drive screws until the head sits just below the drywall surface without breaking through the face paper. Follow local building codes and manufacturer spacing requirements for drywall fastener placement. Do not overdrive screws, as breaking the face paper reduces holding strength and requires additional joint compound repair.
