Metallics DWS1B – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can these sharp point screws drive into steel studs without pre-drilling?
Yes, into light gauge material. The sharp point and Rockwell C44 hardened steel body will self-pierce light gauge steel and aluminum framing with a standard drywall gun. Heavier structural steel is past what a sharp point will do, that calls for a self-drilling point.
2) Is black phosphate drywall screw finish OK for exterior or damp areas?
No. Black phosphate on steel, which is what the DWS1B carries, is a dry interior finish only, it slows surface rust in handling and storage but gives no real corrosion protection. For exterior sheathing, soffits, or a bath or kitchen with moisture exposure, order a coated or galvanized screw instead.
3) Do these drywall screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. The DWS1B is listed as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, this screw will not satisfy it and you need a documented domestic fastener.
4) Does a bugle head drywall screw really sit flush without tearing the paper face?
That is the point of the bugle profile. The head is 0.315 to 0.347 in. wide with a head height of only 0.020 to 0.031 in., so the tapered underside compresses the gypsum and seats just below the paper face instead of cutting it. Set your gun clutch so the head dimples rather than drives through, then the joint compound covers it in one coat.
5) What size driver bit do I need for Metallics DWS1B screws, and do I have to buy bits separately?
A #2 Phillips bit, and three of them ship with the screws. The Phillips recess is 0.176 to 0.201 in. in diameter and 0.106 in. deep, so a worn or undersized bit will cam out and strip the head. Keep the spares in the pouch and swap as soon as the tip rounds off.
6) How many screws come in a box of Metallics DWS1B and how heavy is it?
The DWS1B ships as a box with an order minimum of 10,000 each, and the carton weighs 30 lbs. For a crew doing production hanging that is a reasonable single buy, but a property manager patching a few units should expect a full case rather than a small jar.
7) What steel are Metallics DWS1B drywall screws made from?
AISI 1018 steel, case hardened to Rockwell C44 and finished in black phosphate. That combination is what lets a #6 shank take the torque of a collated or hand gun without snapping the head off in light gauge track.
8) Will the DWS1B thread match other UNF fasteners on my job?
The thread is UNF at 18 threads per inch on a #6 shank. Drywall screws are thread-forming fasteners, so they cut their own path in gypsum, hardwood, or light gauge metal rather than mating with a tapped nut. Don't plan on pairing it with a nut or threaded insert.
