Electrical screws, also known as switch box screws, are the unsung heroes of electrical work. These short, fully threaded screws secure faceplates to electrical outlets, sockets and switches. You’ll find brass or zinc-plated for corrosion resistance, as well as various lengths to accommodate different thicknesses of faceplates and walls. Electrical screws are essential for reinstalling electrical outlets or switches after renovations like painting or tiling, and securing new fixtures during electrical installations.
A drywall screw is designed for attaching drywall to wood or metal studs. It is available with either coarse or fine threads. They are threaded along their entire length and are self-threading, this allows them to be installed without the need of apilot hole.
These screws consist of an threaded cylindrical shaft that tapers to a point, with a Hex head at the other end. When these are driven into timber, the threads bite into the wood, while the head stops the screw from going all the way through as it provides compression.
