About this product…
Looking for an easy way to secure Tyvek® products to steel studs? The Tyvek® Wrap Caps by DuPont are recommended for fastening any Tyvek® product – ideal for commercial applications.
We offer two options for purchase with this product. The first option is the 2” plastic wrap caps (qt. 1,000) with attached 134” screws for use in steel stud applications (12 - 20 gauge). The 1-3/4” steel stud screws are self-tapping drill point screws, meaning that when turning the self-tapping screw with a screwdriver, it will dig into the surface while simultaneously producing its own hole. This makes installation easy and possible for people with varying skill levels and materials. These screws can be easily applied by hand or drill. The other option offered is the 2” plastic wrap caps (qt. 2,000) without attached screws.
In both options, the 2" diameter on the wrap caps increase fastener holding power, reducing the potential for jobsite blow-off of wrap in comparison to the traditional 1” plastic and metal caps.
DuPont Tyvek Wrap Caps are the recommended fastening method for DuPont Weatherization Systems. Further, this product is ideal for high wind load installations, where these screws can help prevent tear-off and keep Tyvek weather barriers from tearing off while they are exposed during construction.
