Engineered from high-strength carbon steel, these fasteners feature a specialized black phosphate coating that serves three critical purposes: providing a smoother drive into metal tracks, offering essential corrosion resistance for interior environments, and creating a textured surface that significantly improves joint compound (mud) and tape adhesion. Whether you are framing a commercial office space or finishing a residential basement with metal furring, these screws provide the reliability and holding power required for a lasting, crack-free finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision-crafted for speed and efficiency, these #6 fasteners are equipped with an ultra-sharp point that pierces light-gauge metal instantly without the need for pre-drilling. The classic bugle head design is engineered to sit perfectly flush with the drywall surface, while the integrated #2 Phillips drive prevents cam-out and overdriving, protecting the delicate paper face of the gypsum board. The 1-5\/8 inch length provides the ideal penetration depth for single-layer or double-layer applications, making this 5 lb box an essential bulk solution for contractors who demand high-volume performance and professional-grade results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFine Thread Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Specifically optimized for superior grip and effortless installation into light-gauge metal studs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlack Phosphate Coating:\u003c\/strong\u003e Enhances lubricity during driving and ensures excellent drywall mud and paint adhesion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSharp Piercing Point:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides immediate bite into metal tracks, reducing worker fatigue and increasing installation speed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard Bugle Head:\u003c\/strong\u003e Countersinks into the drywall surface without tearing the paper for a smooth, professional finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Strength Carbon Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Robust construction prevents head shearing and ensures long-term structural integrity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal #2 Phillips Drive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compatible with all standard drywall guns and drill drivers to prevent surface damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"padding-left: 20px;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003e(1) 5 lb.

If the paper breaks, the screw loses its holding power. For the best finish, space your screws every 12 inches on walls and every 8 inches on ceilings to prevent sagging and future nail pops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kratos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51692124668215,"sku":"Z5DWSC158","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2274\/5945\/files\/Kratos_6_x_1-5_8_Inch_Fine_Thread_Drywall_Screws_5_lb_Box_Black_Phosphate_Coated_Sharp_Point_Phillips_Drive_Bugle_Head_Fasteners_for_Metal_Studs.jpg?v=1771282498","url":"https:\/\/www.1toptools.com\/products\/kratos-6-x-1-5-8-inch-fine-thread-drywall-screws-5-lb-box-black-phosphate-coated-sharp-point-phillips-drive-bugle-head-fasteners-for-metal-studs","provider":"1 Top Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
