42mm drywall screws are commonly used in interior construction projects for fastening drywall panels to wooden studs or framing. They feature a sharp, self-drilling point and coarse threads designed to securely grip both the drywall and the wood substrate. The 42mm length is suitable for standard drywall thicknesses and provides ample penetration into the wood framing for secure attachment. These screws are typically made of hardened steel and have a phosphate coating to resist corrosion.
