Each screw features a Type 17 point that pierces wood and metal studs ranging from 26 to 20 gauge, a high-low thread design that drives cleanly through dense cement board, and a twist shank that prevents board cracking while clearing debris. An epoxy coating provides corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior applications, including use with treated wood. The pack includes a T20 Pro-Stik bit for stable, one-hand driving operation. Installed by tile setters, carpenters, and general contractors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese screws are sized for 1\/4 inch cement board installations. One box contains enough fasteners to install six 3-foot x 5-foot cement board panels. The textured head profile improves mortar adhesion after installation, making this fastener well suited for tile backer applications in wet areas such as shower surrounds, bathroom floors, and kitchen backsplash substrates. The screws are compatible with all major cement board brands, reducing the need to stock multiple fastener SKUs for different board manufacturers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType 17 point pierces wood and metal studs from 26 to 20 gauge without pre-drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwist shank design prevents cement board cracking and clears debris during drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-low thread pattern drives cleanly and quickly through dense cement board material\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEpoxy corrosion-resistant coating rated for interior and exterior use, including treated wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTextured head improves mortar and thin-set adhesion over the fastener\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes one T20 Pro-Stik bit for stable driving and one-hand operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReusable, stackable plastic packaging for jobsite organization and storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/4 inch cement board fastened to wood framing or light-gauge metal studs (20 to 26 gauge).

Drive screws flush to the board surface without countersinking excessively, as over-driving can fracture the board face. Use the included T20 bit or a matched T20 driver bit to maintain proper torque control. Follow local building codes and the cement board manufacturer's installation guidelines for fastener spacing in wet-area applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 x 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity per Package\u003c\/strong\u003e: 185 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 17\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Design\u003c\/strong\u003e: Twist shank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Epoxy corrosion-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Stud Gauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 to 26 gauge metal studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Board Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch cement board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e: Sufficient to install six 3-foot x 5-foot boards per box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Accessory\u003c\/strong\u003e: T20 Pro-Stik driver bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: HILLMAN FASTENERS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48888\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HILLMAN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558878871858,"sku":"48888","price":81.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0dc97815e659409ecf23e4222f00e3db.jpg?v=1786421649","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hillman-fasteners-48888-cement-board-screws-9x1-1-4-185pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
