Metallics JDWC11C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a coarse thread drywall screw like the Metallics JDWC11C work in metal studs?
No. The JDWC11C is a sharp point coarse thread screw at 8 threads per inch, which is the wood stud and wood framing pattern. Sharp point coarse screws will spin without pulling in light gauge steel framing; for metal studs you want a fine thread (high-low style) drywall screw with a needle or self-drilling point instead.
2) Is a 4 inch drywall screw too long for 1/2 inch drywall on wood studs?
For a single layer of 1/2 inch board, yes, that is far more screw than the job needs. A 4 inch length is for thick build-ups, multiple layers of board, furring over existing finish, or screwing wood framing members together. At 4 inches with a #10 diameter, the JDWC11C behaves more like a construction screw with a drywall head profile.
3) Can I use black phosphate drywall screws outdoors or in a damp area?
Keep them inside. Black phosphate is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior use, not a weathering finish. The JDWC11C is listed as Black Phosphate/Galvanized finish over steel, which is fine for interior board and framing but not for exterior decks, wet rooms, or treated lumber where you need a coated or stainless exterior screw.
4) What size Phillips bit do I need for the Metallics JDWC11C drywall screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess is 0.190 to 0.204 inch in diameter and 0.124 inch deep, so a #2 driver seats fully and keeps you from camming out while you set the head.
5) Why a bugle head on the Metallics JDWC11C instead of a flat or pan head?
The bugle head is a shallow flared profile, 0.020 to 0.039 inch in head height and 0.334 to 0.363 inch across. That flare compresses the paper face as the head seats rather than tearing through it, so the screw dimples flush and takes joint compound cleanly. A flat or pan head would either stand proud or cut the paper.
6) How many Metallics JDWC11C screws come in a pack, and how are they packaged?
They ship 100 to a jar, with 100 count as the order minimum. The jar weighs 2.12 lbs, which is useful if you are staging material by weight or shipping to a jobsite in bulk.
7) Do the Metallics JDWC11C screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
Metallics lists the JDWC11C as compliant for both ARRA and Buy American. Country of origin is recorded as multiple, so if your specification requires a single documented origin for each lot, request that confirmation against the lot you are being shipped.
8) Are these Metallics drywall screws hard enough that the heads won't snap off when driven?
The JDWC11C is case hardened to Rockwell C45-64 and made from AISI 1018 steel. That hardness range is what lets a bugle head screw take full torque from a screw gun without stripping the recess or shearing at the head, though as with any hardened screw, overdriving into a hard shim or a nail plate can still break it.
9) Is the thread on these #10 by 4 in. screws a standard machine thread?
The thread is listed as UNC at 8 threads per inch with coarse spacing. Note that it is a sharp point sheet metal and wood style screw, so it cuts its own thread in wood or board, it is not intended to run into a tapped #10-32 or #10-24 hole.
10) Can I get the JDWC coarse thread drywall screws in other lengths or pack sizes?
Yes. The JDWC and DWC series covers other diameters, lengths, and quantities beyond the #10 by 4 inch, 100 count jar, and Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request. Specify diameter, length, and count when you ask.
