Value Collection DPBFI0-60162P-500BX No.6 Drywall Screw 500ct

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION DPBFI0-60162P-500BX is a No. 6 coarse-thread drywall screw designed for fastening drywall panels to wood or light-gauge steel framing. At 1-5/8 inches in overall length, this screw hits the standard depth needed to secure half-inch or five-eighths-inch drywall board without overdriving into the stud. The bugle head profile distributes load evenly against the drywall face, reducing paper tear-out. A black phosphate finish provides corrosion resistance during normal interior service. Material is Grade 2 steel. Sold in a box of 500 fasteners.

This screw is suited to residential and light commercial drywall installation. The 1-5/8-inch length is the most common choice for attaching half-inch drywall to wood studs and is also used in single-layer applications on metal framing. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard drywall screw guns and bit-tip drivers set to clutch depth. Drywall finishers, framers, and general contractors keep this size on hand for field and repair work alike.

Key Features

• No. 6 screw size with 1-5/8-inch overall length — standard sizing for half-inch drywall over wood framing
• Bugle head profile reduces surface paper tear-out during installation
• Phillips drive compatible with drywall screw guns and standard power drivers
• Black phosphate finish resists corrosion in interior applications
• Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate shear strength for wallboard fastening

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or jobsite supply fastener for No. 6 drywall screw applications in residential and light commercial interior wall and ceiling assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by drywall hangers, framers, or general contractors using a drywall screw gun or variable-speed drill with a clutch-depth attachment. Set the clutch to sink the screw head slightly below the drywall surface without breaking through the face paper. Space fasteners per applicable building code and panel manufacturer guidelines. Avoid overdriving, which reduces holding strength and creates voids that require additional compound work.
