Ceiling Buttons for Plaster Repair
The MIDWEST FASTENER 52390 ceiling buttons are zinc-plated steel washers designed to secure sagging plaster ceilings. They suit contractors and DIY renovators who need to re-anchor loose plaster to joists or lath. Each washer is countersunk for a drywall screw and perforated to hold spackle so the repair blends into the surface. The 7500-piece bulk pack supports large-scale restoration projects.
Capacity and Headroom
A single box supplies 7500 washers, providing enough hardware for multiple rooms or an entire house. The quantity handles extensive ceilings where dozens of fasteners are required per square metre. Work stops only when the box is empty; there is no smaller increment available in this pack. Very small patch jobs will leave most of the supply unused.
Zinc-Plated Steel Limits
The zinc plating offers basic corrosion resistance for interior dry conditions. It is not rated for exterior exposure, high humidity or contact with treated lumber. The steel will rust if the coating is scratched or if moisture penetrates the spackle layer. Installers must ensure the environment stays dry to maintain the fastener's integrity over time.

Questions about this item
Will the 1-inch zinc-plated steel ceiling buttons hold plaster securely alongside existing drywall screws?
The buttons are countersunk for a drywall screw and perforated to hold spackle, so they work with the screws you already use to secure sagging plaster ceilings.
How can I confirm the 52390 ceiling buttons are installed correctly?
After driving each screw through the countersunk centre, the button should sit flush against the plaster and the perforated face will hold spackle for a smooth finish.
Does the 7500-piece pack include drywall screws or spackle, or must I buy them separately?
The box contains only the 1-inch zinc-plated steel ceiling buttons; drywall screws and spackle are not included and must be purchased separately.
