The DEWALT DW257 6.2-Amp Drywall Screw Gun is a lightweight but powerful tool for hanging drywall, building decks, and driving screws into heavy-gauge steel studs. Its depth-sensitive, "set and forget" nosepiece keeps every fastener at the same depth, so you don't have to reverse the screws or worry about breaking the drywall paper.
DEWALT DW257 Drywall Screw Gun: Consistent Depth and Comfortable Control
The two-finger trigger and rubber grip reduce hand fatigue during long installations. Inside, helical-cut steel and heat-treated gears are built to handle the high torque and continuous motor load that drywall work demands.
Depth Stop and Nosepiece Replacements
If your DW257 nosepiece wears out, the depth stop is serviceable. Searching for a DW257 nosepiece replacement? Contact Workbench World and we can help you get the right DEWALT part number.

Product Details
Set-and-Forget Depth Control
Once you dial in the depth, the DW257 drives each screw to the same level. No more counter-sinking too deep or leaving screws proud. The nosepiece stays put until you change it.
Built for High-Torque Materials
Deck screws and steel stud framing put a load on a screw gun. The DW257's helical-cut steel gears handle the strain, and the two-finger trigger gives you better control than a full-wrap trigger when you're working overhead.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the DW257 handle decking screws?
Yes, it has high torque for deck building, drywall, and heavy-gauge steel stud framing. You can adjust the depth for longer screws.
How does the depth-sensitive nosepiece work?
Once you set the depth, the nosepiece keeps the screw head at a consistent level, so you don't need to adjust your pressure on every screw.
Is the nosepiece replaceable?
Yes. If your DW257 nosepiece wears out or gets damaged, contact Workbench World and we'll help you find a replacement part.
Is this a full-size drywall screw gun?
It's a dedicated drywall screw gun with a lightweight, ergonomic body designed for overhead and continuous use.

Great screw gun
I've hung drywall for years and this gun drives screws to the same depth every time. It's light and comfortable. The depth adjustment is easy to set.

Solid performer
This replaced my old screw gun that lasted 20 years. The grip is comfortable and the motor has plenty of power. It's a bit heavy, but that's expected for a drywall gun.
