Benefits
- Grabber’s Pro-Fit™ # 2 Phillips recess is a precision recess designed for better bit engagement resulting in less wobble or strip-out.
- The unique Scavenger® double bugle head design seats cleanly into drywall eliminating the potential for paper burrs and making your finishing job much easier.
- Grabber fine thread drywall screws begin with the best available materials and conform to strict manufacturing requirements in thread forming. Extra sharp twin lead alternating thread screws drive faster and will hold better in light-gauge metal and wood.
- Grabber’s extra sharp 23˚ Streaker® point design starts immediately and is much less likely to flop over.
Recommended Application
- Drywall attachment to light-gauge steel or wood.
Installation Guidelines
- Suggested screwgun specification for optimal performance – Size #6 - #8, up to 4,000 RPM.
- For gypsum board, the Scavenger® head is fully seated when the screw is below the surface of the wallboard in accordance with Section 7.2.2 of ASTM C1002.
- Overdriving may result in failure of the fastener or failure of the gypsum board.
- The fastener must penetrate beyond the metal a minimum of three full threads.
