Itw Buildex 8N200SPLB/500 Drywall Screw 2 in 500pk

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 8N200SPLB/500 is a Number 8 coarse-thread drywall screw with a 2-inch overall length, flat head profile, and Phillips drive. Constructed from steel with a black oxide finish, these screws are designed for fastening drywall panels to wood or light-gauge steel framing studs. The black oxide coating provides moderate corrosion resistance in typical interior applications. This package contains 500 screws, making it well suited for production drywall work where consistent fastener supply is critical. Licensed drywall mechanics, general contractors, and finish carpenters are the primary installers.

These screws are used in residential and light commercial drywall installation, including walls, ceilings, and partition assemblies. The flat head design allows the fastener to sit flush or slightly below the drywall face without tearing the paper facing, which is standard practice before taping and finishing. The Phillips drive tip is compatible with standard drywall screw guns and variable-speed drills fitted with a dimpler attachment.

Key Features

• Black oxide steel construction for durability in standard interior environments
• Flat head profile seats flush with the drywall surface for clean tape-and-finish results
• Phillips drive compatible with standard drywall screw guns and dimpler bits
• 500-count package quantity supports high-volume production work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Number 8 coarse-thread drywall screw suitable for attaching drywall panels to wood framing members in residential and light commercial construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by drywall mechanics or general carpenters using a drywall screw gun or variable-speed drill with a dimpler depth-setter. Power off all circuits in the work area before fastening near electrical boxes or conduit runs. Drive screws to the proper dimple depth without breaking through the drywall face paper, as over-driven fasteners must be added alongside and the damaged screw left in place per standard finishing practice. Follow applicable local building codes for fastener spacing on walls and ceilings.
