Has anyone used this for TEKS AND drywall screws?

The 1/4" hex drive ball lock chuck is used on all depth sensitive and drywall screwdrivers.

I've never tried, but probably not. For a dual-purpose gun that is used for electrical work as well as structural soldering, that would not be a particularly strong selling point. You are probably looking for welding or brazing tools, not soldering guns, if you want to actually melt wiring.

I would say so, It does a great job of finding nails and screws in plaster and lath walls. Their instructions should work well for what you are doing. Wide scan for general area and then focus it in on the specific spot.

I have not used mine much for that kind of work I mostly use it to drive screws in tit places. it doesn't have a lot of tork so if its not removing your bolts or screw you need more tork or a bigger wrench

It is great for running screws in it won't jump out like a drill dose. also great for lag bolts and such.

The magnet works fine for screws comperable in size to the tool. I use it for emerency repairs to salt water fishing reels and it does a good job.

No, it works well for shop tools as in open/box end wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers etc. hope this helped. Dennis

You can use drywall screws but your pieces might try to move. The screws they have drill a pilot hole as they go in. The Kreg screws are resonably priced and fairly easy to find.

I think so. It has plenty of torque to drive 3" drywall screws. It fits my hand very well, its light and well balanced. I find the light only 1/2 effective because it is located near the trigger and only lights up the area below the screw your driving, does not light the screw head.

YES!!! I work on copiers and use the lowest setting to reinstall control boards with no damage to the board at all. And that is using metal screws.

I would not recommend this on drywall. Recently took a whole bunch of command hooks off my drywall. On many of them, the adhesive broke from behind the hook. Some pulled part of the wall off with them. Didn't have this problem on wooden doors and came off easily from tile as well.

It's a Tek Lok. I can't remember if it's an older or newer one, because I hardly ever use it.

No problems with using decent brand - I most commonly use Senco screws when I'm working with metal studs and coarse thread 1-5/8" from Lowes or Home Depot when going into wood studs. The tool is a gem that has paid for itself many times over in time savings and convenience.

I used and recommend anchors in drywall. The included ones that came with the block were nice beefy ones and I used them. I have to think screws alone into drywall would work loose over time. If you have any wobble after the install you could tighten the screws a bit more into the anchors until the final install is flush and firm to the wall. This mounts by slots on the back of the block sliding onto the screw heads so you control how tight the install is to the wall.

I haven't tried other screws yet, you would have to be careful how tight you put the screws with the beveled flange on dry wall screws it might split the wood . Try it on scrap.

Hello Mini. I use this around the house for light jobs like drilling holes in drywall to hang pictures. I don't think it would handle tougher materials. You do have to use the drill bits with hexagonal bases. This driver will not accept standard bits with round bases. I bought this to use with a winder attachment for changing guitar strings. It is GREAT for that but I find myself using it for all sorts of screw driving and light drilling. I like that it takes regular batteries. In my experience the rechargeables fail after about a year and you can't replace the battery. I hope this helps. James.
