Itw Buildex 8N250SPLB/100 Drywall Screw 2.5in Phillips 100pk

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 8N250SPLB/100 is a coarse-thread drywall screw designed for securing gypsum board to wood or light-gauge steel framing. Each screw measures 2.5 inches in overall length with a number 8 thread size, a flat head profile, and a Phillips drive recess. The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance for interior applications. The steel construction is Grade 2, giving the fastener the hardness and torsional strength needed to drive cleanly through drywall without stripping. This package contains 100 screws, sized for production framing and drywall installation work.

These screws are suited for residential and light commercial drywall applications where standard half-inch to five-eighths-inch gypsum board is fastened to wood studs or light-gauge metal framing. The 2.5-inch length accommodates single-layer drywall over wood framing with adequate embedment into the stud. The flat head countersinks flush with the drywall surface for a smooth finish-ready result. Carpenters, drywall hangers, and general contractors are the typical installers for this fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters and drywall hangers using a screw gun or variable-speed drill with a Phillips bit. Power down any electrical circuits in the work area before fastening near outlet or switch boxes. Drive screws to a slight dimple without breaking the drywall paper for proper embedment. Follow applicable building code requirements for fastener spacing and pattern.
