Metallics JDWSR3C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What driver bit do I need for the Metallics JDWSR3C drywall screws?
A #1 square drive bit. The JDWSR3C uses a square (Robertson) recess, driver size #1, with a recess width of 0.090 to 0.106 in. and depth of 0.055 to 0.071 in. If your crew is set up with Phillips #2 bits only, you'll need to add square bits before these go in the gun.
2) Are coarse thread drywall screws like these right for wood studs or metal studs?
Coarse thread, sharp point screws are the wood stud choice. The JDWSR3C is a #6 x 1-1/4 in. coarse thread (UNC, 8 to 10 threads per inch) screw with a sharp point, and Metallics lists its field application as drywall-to-wood. For light gauge steel studs you want a fine thread drywall screw instead, which cuts into metal without stripping.
3) Can black phosphate drywall screws be used outdoors or in a damp area?
No. Black phosphate is a mild, paint-ready interior coating, not a corrosion barrier, so the JDWSR3C belongs in dry interior drywall work. For exterior sheathing, soffits, or anything exposed to moisture, use a coated or stainless exterior screw instead.
4) Do these Metallics screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
No. The JDWSR3C is listed as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin shown as multiple. If your job carries domestic sourcing language, these will not satisfy it and you'll need a domestically produced fastener.
5) Will a bugle head screw sit flush without tearing the drywall paper?
That's what the bugle shape is for. The tapered head on the JDWSR3C self-countersinks into the paper face and seats just below flush so joint compound covers it. Head width runs 0.315 to 0.347 in. and head height 0.020 to 0.031 in. Metallics notes there is no single industry standard for bugle head dimensions, so slight deviations are normal.
6) How are the Metallics JDWSR3C screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 is the order minimum. Jar packaging is handy for a service van or a maintenance cart rather than a bulk bucket on a hanging crew. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) Are these drywall screws hard enough to drive without snapping the heads off?
The JDWSR3C is heat treated to Rockwell C45-64 and made from AISI 1018 steel, which is the normal hardness band for a drywall screw: hard enough that the square recess resists cam-out and the shank drives into wood without twisting off. Hardened screws are brittle in shear, though, so they are not a structural or framing fastener.
8) What does the jar of 100 Metallics drywall screws weigh for shipping or a van stock?
0.41 lbs for the jar, with the package measuring 3 x 3 x 2.15 in. Light enough to carry a few sizes on a service vehicle without eating payload.
