Hillman Fasteners 967623 Drywall Screw 1.25in No 6 8000pc

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 967623 is a black phosphate drywall screw designed for fastening drywall panels to wood framing in residential and light commercial construction. The Phillips bugle head countersinks cleanly into drywall face paper without tearing, while the coarse thread provides firm bite in wood studs and plates. The black phosphate coating resists corrosion during installation and reduces cam-out friction at the driver tip. Each bucket contains 8,000 screws at 1.25 inches in length, sized for single-layer half-inch or five-eighths-inch drywall applications. This bulk format suits production framers and drywall crews running high-volume jobs.

These screws are intended for attaching gypsum wallboard to wood framing members in interior wall and ceiling assemblies. The 1.25-inch length and No. 6 shank are matched to single-layer drywall installations where the fastener must penetrate the board and embed into the wood substrate without blowout on the back side. The coarse thread pattern is specifically suited to wood studs, blocking, and top and bottom plates. The bulk 8,000-piece plastic bucket quantity supports sustained production work on residential new construction and remodel projects.

Key Features

• Phillips bugle head countersinks flush without tearing drywall face paper
• Coarse thread for positive grip in wood framing members
• Black phosphate finish reduces friction and provides corrosion resistance
• 1.25-inch length suited for single-layer drywall over wood framing
• 8,000-piece bulk bucket minimizes job-site restocking interruptions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fastener for single-layer gypsum wallboard installations over wood framing members using No. 6 coarse-thread drywall screws.

Installation Notes

Drywall screws should be driven with a variable-speed screw gun or drill fitted with a drywall dimpler attachment to achieve consistent countersink depth without overdriving. Drive the screw until the bugle head sits just below the drywall surface without breaking the face paper. Fastener spacing and edge distances must comply with local building codes and the applicable gypsum board manufacturer guidelines. Do not use coarse-thread drywall screws in metal framing — fine-thread variants are required for steel studs.
