The DEWALT DW252 6.0-Amp Drywall Screw Gun is a production-grade tool designed for drywall installers and contractors who need consistent fastener depth and high-speed output. With a 4,000 RPM motor and a depth-sensitive nosepiece that you can set and forget, it makes quick work of hanging drywall while reducing the risk of dimpling or breaking paper.
DEWALT DW252 Drywall Screw Gun: Built for Production
The DW252 is lightweight and well-balanced, so you can work overhead for hours without fatigue. The helical-cut steel and heat-treated gears are built for long life, and the two-finger trigger gives you better control. This is the screw gun for pros who need to drive thousands of screws a day without hand strain.
Depth-Sensitive Nosepiece
The DW252's signature feature is its depth-sensitive nosepiece. Once you set the depth, it stays consistent screw after screw, preventing over- or under-driving. The nosepiece is user-replaceable, and genuine DEWALT replacement parts are available. If you're looking to replace a worn nosepiece, consult your owner's manual for the correct part number and installation steps.
Speed and Control
At 4,000 RPM, the DW252 can keep up with fast-paced production work. The variable speed trigger lets you start slow for precise positioning and then bury the screw quickly. You get the speed you need without sacrificing control.
Comfort in Long Shifts
The rubber grip absorbs vibration, and the two-finger trigger allows a natural, comfortable hold – especially when driving a stack of screws one after another. The tool's lightweight design reduces strain on your wrist and forearm, making it a favorite among drywallers.
