Professional Features & Benefits

Superior Construction & Durability

• Steel Black Phosphate Construction - Premium AISI 1018 steel material with black phosphate finish provides excellent corrosion resistance and professional appearance for long-lasting performance
• Bugle Head Design - Engineered bugle head with 0.315-0.347" width countersinks cleanly into drywall without tearing paper surface, ensuring professional finish quality
• Fine Thread Configuration - UNF thread type with 18 threads per inch and fine thread spacing provides superior holding power in drywall and light gauge materials
• Rockwell C44 Hardness - Precision heat treatment delivers optimal hardness for reliable performance and consistent installation without stripping or breaking

Professional Installation Performance

• Phillips Drive System - #2 Phillips drive with precision recess depth of 0.106" and diameter of 0.176-0.201" ensures positive bit engagement and reduces cam-out during installation
• Sharp Point Design - Engineered sharp point penetrates drywall and backing materials efficiently without pre-drilling, reducing installation time and labor costs
• Optimal Length Specification - 2" fastener length provides proper penetration depth for standard drywall thickness with adequate engagement in backing materials
