Itw Buildex 8N125SPLB/500 Drywall Screw 500 Pack

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 8N125SPLB/500 is a coarse-thread drywall screw designed for attaching gypsum wallboard to wood framing. These are Number 8 flat-head screws with a Phillips drive, measuring 1.25 inches in overall length. The black oxide finish provides moderate corrosion resistance suitable for interior drywall applications. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel, the screws offer consistent thread engagement and bugle-head countersinking that resists tearing the drywall face paper. This package contains 500 screws, making it appropriate for production framing crews and drywall contractors working on residential and light commercial projects.

These screws are used in standard interior drywall installations where wallboard is fastened to wood studs or blocking. The flat bugle head seats flush with the drywall surface without tearing face paper, which is critical for a smooth finish coat. Drywall hangers, finish carpenters, and general contractors working on residential new construction or remodel projects will find the 500-count packaging suited to sustained job-site use.

Key Features

• Number 8 coarse thread for solid bite into wood framing
• 1.25-inch overall length for single-layer drywall attachment to wood studs
• Phillips drive for use with standard drywall screw guns and drill drivers
• Flat bugle head countersinks cleanly without damaging face paper
• Black oxide finish for interior corrosion resistance
• Grade 2 steel construction for consistent shank strength

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for interior wood-framed drywall assemblies using Number 8 coarse-thread drywall screws.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall hangers or general carpenters using a variable-speed drywall screw gun or drill driver set to the correct clutch depth. Power should be confirmed off at any nearby electrical work before driving screws near wiring. Screws should be driven so the head dimples the surface slightly without breaking through the face paper. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer spacing requirements for fastener patterns.
