What screws for Villaboard?

I purchased these screws as I have steel studs, https://www.bunnings.com.au/zenith-6g-18-x-25mm-drill-point-gold-passivated-plasterboard-screw-100-p...

 

However, I was reading that villaboard needs special screws because of corrosion. Anyone know if these serws are fine for villaboard?

Re: villaboard screws

Hi @anthonyu,

 

You should use Zenith 8G x 30mm Galvanised Countersunk Rib Head Metal Screws. The gal coating will prevent rust. They need to be driven 0.5mm below the surface of the board.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
