Metallics DWSR6M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What driver bit do I need for Metallics DWSR6M drywall screws?
A #1 square drive bit. The DWSR6M 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. Stock your guns and impact drivers with #1 square bits before the crew starts, not #2.
2) Will coarse thread drywall screws like the DWSR6M hold in wood studs or do I need fine thread?
Coarse thread is the right call for wood framing. The DWSR6M runs coarse UNC threading at 8 to 10 threads per inch with a sharp point, and Metallics lists its application as drywall-to-wood. For steel studs you want a fine thread screw instead, which bites metal without stripping.
3) Does a bugle head screw countersink itself in drywall without tearing the paper?
That is what the bugle profile is for. The DWSR6M head is a bugle type measuring 0.315 to 0.347 in. across with a head height of 0.020 to 0.031 in., so it dimples the face paper and seats flush for mud rather than punching through. Set your gun depth so the head sits just below the surface.
4) Is black phosphate drywall screw OK for exterior or damp work?
No. Black phosphate is a dry interior finish, and these Metallics screws are steel with a black phosphate coating. For exterior, wet areas, or treated lumber, use a coated deck or exterior screw instead; phosphate will rust in those conditions.
5) How many Metallics DWSR6M screws come in a box and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a box of 1,000, which is also the order minimum. Box weight is listed at 8 lbs.
6) Do Metallics DWSR6M screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a federal job?
No. These are listed as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin reported as multiple. If your project carries domestic sourcing requirements, specify a domestically produced fastener instead.
7) Are these drywall screws hard enough that they won't snap or cam out when driven fast?
The DWSR6M is made from AISI 1018 steel case hardened to Rockwell C45-64, which is the normal hardness range for a hardened drywall screw. Paired with the square recess, cam-out is much less of an issue than with a Phillips head on a high-speed collated gun.
8) Will the DWSR6M work for fastening wood trim or furring, or is it drywall only?
Metallics lists the application as drywall-to-wood. The sharp point and coarse UNC thread will start and hold in softwood framing or furring, so it works for light wood fastening behind board. It is not a structural fastener and it is not rated for outdoor or load-bearing connections.
