Using these DAGGERZ wafer self-drill screws is easy. First, pick the right spot on the metal stud where you want to attach the wire lath. Since these screws have a self-drill point, you don't have to pre-drill. Just align the screw with the spot and start turning using a #2 Phillips drive tool. As you turn, the fine threads will grip the metal well, holding the wire lath firmly in place. When it comes to maintenance, keep these screws in a dry place. The phosphate finish already helps with corrosion, but extra moisture can still cause problems over time. Also, make sure to store them away from sharp objects that could damage the screw heads. And always double - check the screw is straight when you're driving it in to ensure the best results.
