Value Collection MP02271 Drywall Screw 1/4 in 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP02271 is a steel drywall screw with a hex washer head and a combination slotted/Phillips drive, designed for fastening drywall panels in residential and light commercial framing applications. The screw measures 1/4 inch in diameter with a 1-1/4 inch length under head, making it suited for thin-gauge fastening tasks where a low-profile hex washer head is required. Finished in chrome over Grade 1018 steel, it offers a hard, consistent fastener with the flexibility of being driven by either a slotted or Phillips bit. Sold in packs of 25, this SKU is well suited for small repair jobs and precision fastening work.

This screw is commonly used by drywall hangers, framers, and general contractors working on interior wall and ceiling assemblies. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface that resists pull-through, while the dual-drive configuration allows use with standard Phillips or slotted drivers. At 1-1/4 inches under head, this fastener is appropriate for single-layer drywall attachment to light steel stud framing or wood framing where a shorter penetration depth is specified.

Key Features

• Combination slotted/Phillips drive accepts standard Phillips bits or slotted drivers
• Hex washer head provides broad bearing surface to reduce pull-through
• Grade 1018 steel construction for consistent hardness and thread integrity
• Chrome finish for surface protection
• 1-1/4 inch length under head suits single-layer drywall fastening applications
• Sold in a pack of 25 for small-batch or repair use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard drywall screw for use in typical interior drywall fastening applications to wood or light steel framing where a 1/4 inch hex washer head screw with 1-1/4 inch under-head length is specified.

Installation Notes

Install with a hex-head driver or Phillips bit at low to moderate torque to avoid stripping the drive or countersinking the washer head below the drywall face. Power down any nearby electrical systems before fastening near outlet or switch boxes. Follow applicable local building codes for fastener spacing on drywall assemblies. Do not overdrive — the hex washer head is not designed to seat flush with the board surface.
