L H Dottie Co DWT6118 Drywall Screw 6x1-1/8 in 500ct

Product Description

The L H DOTTIE CO DWT6118 is a coarse-thread drywall screw used to fasten drywall panels to wood framing. Sized at 6 x 1-1/8 inches, this fastener is suited for attaching 1/2-inch drywall to standard wood studs. The package contains 500 screws, making it a practical quantity for production framing work. Drywall screws in this size class are a daily consumable on residential and light commercial jobsites, driven by drywall screw guns or variable-speed drills fitted with a dimpler attachment.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial interior construction wherever gypsum board panels are being hung on wood framing. A 6 x 1-1/8-inch length is a standard selection for single-layer 1/2-inch drywall installation. Drywall finishers, general contractors, and framing crews keep these on hand as a high-volume consumable throughout the drywall phase of a project.

Installation Notes

Drywall screws are driven by carpenters and drywall hangers using a screw gun or drill with a drywall dimpler bit set to the correct depth. Drive the screw until the bugle head dimples the drywall face paper without breaking through it. Do not overdrive — breaking through the face paper reduces holding strength and requires additional compound work. Follow applicable local building codes and manufacturer spacing requirements for fastener patterns.
