Value Collection MP02278 Drywall Screw 2 in Wafer Head 10pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MP02278 is a Phillips drive wafer head drywall screw designed for fastening drywall panels to steel framing and light-gauge metal studs. Manufactured from Grade 1018 steel with a white finish, this screw measures 2 inches in overall length with a 1/4-inch diameter shank. The low-profile wafer head sits flush against the drywall surface, reducing the risk of tearing the paper face. These screws are sold in a pack of 10 and are suited for drywall installation tasks where a clean, finished appearance is required on visible fastener points.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial drywall applications, particularly where screws will be visible or only lightly covered. The wafer head profile is well suited for attaching drywall to metal framing or securing trim components. The Phillips drive tip is compatible with standard drywall screw guns and bit drivers. Installers working on interior wall and ceiling assemblies will find this size appropriate for single-layer 5/8-inch drywall installations over metal framing.

Installation Notes

Drywall screws should be driven by a licensed drywall installer or experienced trade professional using a drywall screw gun set to the appropriate clutch depth to avoid overdriving. Drive screws perpendicular to the framing surface to maintain holding strength. Follow local building codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing when installing drywall assemblies. Do not overdrive; the wafer head should sit flush without breaking the drywall paper face.
