Self Drilling Plasterboard Bugle Screws 6g x 25mm 1000 Pack

The self-drilling plasterboard bugle screw is a 6g x 25mm drywall fastener with a needle point and a bugle head. The needle point pierces timber and thin steel up to 0.6mm without a pilot hole, and the bugle head seats flush into the board so the paper face does not tear. The zinc yellow finish gives moderate corrosion protection, and the 1000 pack is the volume size for hanging plasterboard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why a bugle head on a plasterboard screw?

The bugle head spreads the load as it seats and countersinks flush into the board, so the paper face dimples neatly instead of tearing. That is what lets you finish over the screw without a proud head.

Does it really drill steel?

The needle point is self-drilling and pierces thin steel up to 0.6mm, which covers the steel studs and furring channels used in drywall systems. Heavier steel needs a proper self-drilling screw.

How deep should I drive the screw?

Drive until the bugle head just breaks the paper face and sits flush, with a slight dimple. Over-driving breaks the paper and loses holding strength, so a screw gun with a depth clutch is the best tool.

What is the difference from the collated version?

The collated screws are the same drywall fastener on strips for auto-feed screw guns, while these are loose screws for a standard drill driver. Both fix plasterboard to timber; the collated version suits high-volume hanging.
