Metallics JDWS5CD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are fine thread drywall screws like the Metallics JDWS5CD right for metal studs or wood framing?
Fine thread, 18 threads per inch, is the metal-stud screw. The JDWS5CD is rated for light gauge steel and light gauge aluminum framing, and for hardwood. For standard softwood wood studs you want a coarse thread drywall screw instead, since fine threads tend to spin out and strip in soft lumber.
2) Do Metallics JDWS5CD screws qualify for a Buy American or ARRA funded job?
They are made in the United States, but they are not flagged Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant. If your contract requires either certification, these do not carry it even with US origin.
3) What size Phillips bit do I need to drive Metallics JDWS5CD drywall screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess is 0.106 in. deep and 0.176 to 0.201 in. across, so a #2 seats fully and resists cam-out. A #1 will chew the recess and a #3 will not bottom out.
4) Will a bugle head screw sit flush enough to tape and finish over?
That is what the bugle head is for. The tapered underside compresses the paper face without tearing it, and with a head height of only 0.020 to 0.031 in. and a head width of 0.315 to 0.347 in. it dimples just below the board surface so joint compound covers it in a thin coat. Bugle head dimensions are not governed by one single industry standard, so slight deviations between batches are normal.
5) How are Metallics JDWS5CD drywall screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 is the order minimum. Jar weight is 0.71 lbs. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) Is the black phosphate finish on these drywall screws OK for exterior or damp locations?
No. Black phosphate is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior work, which is what this AISI 1018 steel screw is built for. For exterior soffits, wet areas, or cement board outside, use a corrosion resistant coated or stainless fastener instead.
7) How hard are these drywall screws, and will they snap when driven into steel studs?
The JDWS5CD is case hardened to Rockwell C44 over an AISI 1018 steel core, which is what lets the sharp point pierce light gauge steel without the thread deforming. Keep the driver speed moderate and square to the stud, since any hardened drywall screw can shear if it is cammed over sideways.
8) Can I use these for hanging light gauge steel track or furring, not just board?
Within limits. The field application for the JDWS5CD covers light gauge steel and light gauge aluminum, so steel-to-steel in thin material and hat channel work is in range for a 2 inch fine thread sharp point screw. It is a drywall screw, not a structural connector, so do not substitute it where a framing screw or structural fastener is specified on the drawing.
