Zeus Fasteners #6 x 1-5/8 Inch Coarse Thread Drywall Screws 5000 Count Bulk Box Black Phosphate Sharp Point Phillips Bugle Head Wood Stud Screws

Industrial-Strength Holding Power for Flawless Drywall and Wood Installations

The Zeus #6 x 1-5/8 inch Coarse Thread Drywall Screws are the professional’s choice for high-volume interior framing and gypsum board applications. Engineered with aggressive coarse threads, these fasteners are specifically designed to bite into wood studs and timber components, providing a secure, vibration-resistant grip that prevents structural shifting and "screw pops." The 1-5/8 inch length is the industry standard for securing 5/8-inch thick drywall or double-layer applications, ensuring deep penetration into the wood framing for maximum tensile strength and structural integrity.

Precision-manufactured from high-strength steel, each fastener is treated with a premium black phosphate coating. This industrial finish serves as a lubricant for a smoother drive, offers essential corrosion resistance for interior environments, and creates a textured surface that maximizes the adhesion of joint compound and drywall mud. Featuring an ultra-sharp piercing point for immediate starts and a reduced #2 Phillips bugle head designed to countersink perfectly without tearing the face paper, Zeus Z158CS screws deliver the efficiency and professional-grade finish required for large-scale residential and commercial build-outs.

Pro-Tip: When installing 5/8" fire-rated drywall, ensure you use 1-5/8" screws to maintain at least 1 inch of penetration into the wood stud. Setting your drill's depth sensitive nosepiece is critical—aim for a dimple that is roughly 1/32" below the surface without breaking the paper to ensure a permanent, crack-free bond.
