High Quality Drywall Screw Spy Screws
Drywall screws are primarily used to secure full sheets of drywall, typically 4 feet by 8 feet, for those who are into DIY installations or partial sheets of drywall to either metal or wood studs.Drywall screws can be used to fix nail pops. If you have an antique home and see unexplained circular lumps on the walls, it is likely that it has nail pops.
Before the widespread usage of drywall screws, plasterboard was hammered into the area with wide-head and short nails.
Although drywall nails are still used as a rapid way to fix wallboard, drywall screws had already emerged as the traditional technique of fastening drywall to studs due to the nail-pop issue.

1. Drywall Screw Length
You might ask, how long are drywall screws? Generally, the length of a drywall screw varies depending on where you are going to use it.
The standard drywall size is ½ inch thick. The thickness can be increased or decreased, but the change is immaterial.
For people doing the DIY installation in thicker drywalls, type-x or fire code drywall must be used. This type of drywall is thicker than usual, which is ⅝ thicker, and is used in walls near heater rooms and garages to prevent the fire from spreading.
2. Drywall Screw Threads
Drywall screw threads are classified into two categories: fine and coarse, each of which addresses different purposes.
Coarse-thread drywall screws are best suited for installing most wood studs and drywall. The large threads effectively grip the wood and bring the drywall up towards the studs.
One disadvantage is that metal burrs can become trapped in your fingertips if you use coarse-thread screws. Gloves are recommended while working with coarse-thread drywall screws.
For attaching drywall to metal studs, fine-thread drywall screws work best. Drywall screws with fine threads are ideal for attaching drywall to metal studs.
Coarse threads eat into the metal and never establish appropriate traction. Because fine threads are self-thread, they are ideal for application with metal.
Moreover, fine-thread drywall screws are less effective in wood than coarse-thread screws.
3. Drywall Screw Gauges
The drywall screw diameter is called gauge. In most circumstances, #6 or #8 drywall screws are used.
#6 drywall is commonly used for almost all drywall installation. But in some specific circumstances, thicker drywall must be needed so you can go with the #8 drywall screws. Gauge is frequently stated as the second number the following length.A drywall screw of #6 gauge for 5/8 length, for example, might be represented as "5/8 inch x 6."
