Metallics THS2B – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are the THS2B screws sharp point or self-drilling, and can I use them in metal studs?
Sharp point. The THS2B is a sharp (needle) point drywall screw, which is made for driving into wood framing and will not reliably start in heavier gauge steel. For steel studs you want a self-drilling or fine thread drill-point drywall screw instead.
2) What head style does the Metallics THS2B screw have, and will it finish flush under joint compound?
It is a trim head screw, so the head is smaller in diameter than a standard bugle head drywall screw. It countersinks and leaves a small hole that takes very little compound to fill, which is why trim heads get used on casing, jambs and finish work rather than broad field drywall.
3) How many screws come in a box of Metallics THS2B?
The THS2B is sold as a bulk box of 10,000 pieces. That is a production quantity rather than a contractor pack, so it suits a crew running drywall or trim across multiple units rather than a single small repair.
4) What is the finish on the Metallics THS2B screws, and are they suitable for exterior use?
These are black phosphate coated, which is a dry interior finish that resists scuffing and takes paint and joint compound well. Black phosphate is not a corrosion barrier for wet or outdoor exposure, so for exterior or damp locations choose a coated or stainless deck or trim screw instead.
5) Is the THS2B a full thread or partial thread screw, and why does that matter?
Full thread, right to the head. On a 1-5/8 inch screw that means the threads engage the drywall and the stud over the whole length, which pulls the board tight against framing and reduces the chance of the panel lifting off the stud and popping later.
6) What part number do I order for Metallics #6 x 1-5/8 trim head drywall screws?
Order Metallics part number THS2B. That single number covers the #6 x 1-5/8 inch trim head, full thread, sharp point, black phosphate drywall screw in the 10,000 piece bulk box.
