1022 Case Hardened Drywall Screw

The 1022 Case Hardened Drywall Screw is a high-performance fastener designed specifically for securing drywall to metal or wood studs. Featuring a hardened steel construction with a durable case-hardened exterior, these screws offer superior resistance to bending and breaking during installation.

Key Features:

Material: Carbon steel with case hardening for enhanced strength.

Finish: Black phosphate or corrosion-resistant coating (options vary).

Thread Design: Fine threads with sharp, self-tapping tips for quick penetration and reduced splitting.

Head Type: Bugle head (countersunk) to sit flush with drywall surfaces.

Drive Type: Phillips #2 or square drive (Reed & Prince) for compatibility with most drills.

Applications: Ideal for attaching drywall to steel studs (25-20 gauge) or wood framing.

Advantages:

✔ High tensile strength due to case hardening.

✔ Reduced cam-out (slippage) during driving.

✔ Corrosion-resistant coatings extend lifespan.

✔ Compliant with ASTM standards for drywall fasteners.

Common Sizes:

Length: 1-1/4" to 3" (varies by application).

Diameter: #6 or #8 (metric equivalents available).

Note: The "1022" designation typically refers to the screw’s material grade (carbon steel) and hardening process. Always verify compatibility with your substrate and tools.
