Value Collection 064060PS No.6 1-5/8 in Drywall Screw 500pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 064060PS is a No. 6 coarse-thread drywall screw with a bugle head and Phillips drive, designed for securing drywall panels to wood or light-gauge steel framing. At 1-5/8 inches in overall length, this fastener is a standard choice for single-layer 1/2-inch or 5/8-inch drywall applications. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a black phosphate finish, it provides corrosion inhibition for typical interior installations. Each minimum order unit contains 500 screws. Drywall hangers, finish carpenters, and general contractors keep this size on hand as a go-to fastener for wall and ceiling board attachment.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial interior construction. The 1-5/8-inch length is the most commonly specified size for attaching standard drywall to wood studs, metal track, and hat channel. The black phosphate surface reduces friction during drive-in, helping prevent strip-out. The self-tapping point starts without pre-drilling in typical framing lumber and light-gauge metal stud applications. Sold in packs of 500, this quantity is appropriate for single-room or multi-board work orders.

Key Features

• Bugle head geometry countersinks flush without tearing the drywall face paper
• Phillips drive compatible with standard drywall screw guns and variable-speed drills
• Black phosphate finish inhibits corrosion and reduces driving friction
• Grade 2 steel construction provides consistent tensile strength for interior fastening
• 1-5/8 inch length suits single-layer 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch drywall over wood or light-gauge steel framing
• 500-piece pack quantity minimizes restocking interruptions on production jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or replenishment fastener for interior drywall installations using No. 6 coarse-thread bugle head screws in wood framing or light-gauge steel stud systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall mechanics, finish carpenters, or general construction trades using a drywall screw gun set to the correct clutch depth to avoid overdriving. Drive screws perpendicular to the framing member to seat the bugle head flush with the board surface without breaking the face paper. Follow applicable building codes for fastener spacing, typically specified in the IRC or local amendments. Do not use these screws as structural fasteners in load-bearing connections.
