Drywall screws are specialized fasteners designed for affixing drywall sheets to wooden or metal studs. Unlike regular screws, drywall screws are engineered to prevent tearing of the drywall paper and to provide superior grip. They typically feature a bugle head that reduces the risk of tearing and a sharp drill point that makes installation easier. The market offers various types of drywall screws, including coarse-thread screws for wood and fine-thread screws for metal.

Tek screws, also known as self-drilling screws, are engineered fasteners designed for metal-to-metal or metal-to-wood applications. The distinguishing feature of tek screws is their sharp, drill-like point, allowing them to create their own hole as they are driven into a material. This capability eliminates the need for pre-drilling, which can save significant time and effort during installation.
