Value Collection 32314 Hex Head Lag Screw 1/4 in Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32314 is a 1/4-inch hex head lag screw designed for structural fastening applications in wood and similar materials. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw delivers corrosion resistance suitable for general indoor and light-duty outdoor use. The hex head drive allows installation with a standard socket wrench or hex driver, providing high torque transfer and secure pull-out resistance. At 2 inches in length under the head, it is sized for medium-depth fastening tasks common in construction, HVAC equipment mounting, and general trade work.

This lag screw is used across residential and light commercial applications wherever a threaded wood fastener with a hex drive is required. Common uses include securing equipment brackets, mounting boards, attaching structural framing components, and anchoring support structures for HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work. The zinc plating helps resist surface oxidation in moderate-exposure environments. This fastener is sold in multiples of 50 units per minimum order quantity.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hex head lag screw suitable for use in wood framing, structural lumber, and similar substrates where a 1/4-inch threaded fastener is required.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this type are installed by licensed tradespeople and general contractors using a socket wrench, impact driver, or ratchet with the appropriate hex socket. A pilot hole should be drilled in the substrate before installation to prevent splitting and ensure proper thread engagement. Power down or de-energize any nearby equipment before installing fasteners in proximity to electrical or mechanical systems. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and load requirements.
