Overview

Minerallac Company 26809BFG 8 x 1/2" wafer head screws are precision-engineered fasteners designed for K-Lath metal framing systems. These screws feature a low-profile, wafer-style head that ensures flush installation in metal lath applications, eliminating protrusions that could interfere with drywall or plaster finishes. The Phillips drive provides reliable torque transfer and compatibility with standard screwdrivers or powered drivers, reducing installation time and effort. Constructed from hardened steel, these screws deliver superior shear and tensile strength for secure attachment of metal lath to framing. The zinc plating offers basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor environments, extending service life in typical drywall and plaster applications. Each box contains eight screws, matching the standard 16-inch spacing requirements for K-Lath systems, ensuring consistent fastener placement and load distribution. These screws are a direct replacement for OEM K-Lath fasteners, offering consistent quality and dimensional accuracy. Ideal for commercial and residential construction, they simplify procurement by providing a standardized, high-quality alternative to generic fasteners. The 1/2-inch length ensures adequate penetration into metal studs without over-driving, while the wafer head minimizes surface disruption.
