Hillman Fasteners 47663 Drywall Screw 1.625 in 12 Pack

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 47663 is a coarse thread drywall screw measuring 1.625 inches in length, sold in a 12-count pack. Coarse thread drywall screws are designed for fastening drywall panels to wood framing members. The coarse thread pattern bites aggressively into wood studs and plates, pulling the panel flush without tearing the face paper. This fastener is a standard consumable used by drywall hangers, finish carpenters, and general contractors on residential and light commercial framing projects.

This screw is suited for single-layer drywall installation over wood framing. The 1.625-inch length is a common choice for attaching standard 0.5-inch or 0.625-inch gypsum board to wood studs, providing adequate embedment depth for a secure hold. It is packaged in a 12-unit quantity, making it practical for small patch jobs or targeted repairs where a full box is not required.

• Coarse thread design for fast drive into wood framing
• 1.625-inch length suits standard drywall panel thickness over wood studs

Installation Notes

Drywall screws are driven by a licensed drywall installer or general carpenter using a screw gun or drill fitted with a drywall dimpler bit set to the correct depth. Drive screws to a slight dimple without breaking the face paper. Follow local building codes for screw spacing requirements on gypsum board assemblies. Do not substitute coarse thread screws for fine thread applications in metal framing.
