Value Collection 3GBL9080408 Hex Head Lag Screw Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 3GBL9080408 is a hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications in construction, structural, and mechanical installations. This screw measures 0.5 inches in diameter with a 4.5 inches length under the head. It is manufactured from AISI 1006 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, providing corrosion resistance in exposed or outdoor environments. The hex head drive style allows installation with standard hex wrenches or impact drivers. This fastener meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards and carries a material grade designation of 1006-1022, making it suitable for structural wood-to-wood and wood-to-metal connections common in building trades and HVAC equipment mounting.

Lag screws of this size and specification are commonly used by contractors, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians for securing equipment supports, framing members, structural brackets, and mounting hardware to wood substrates. The hot-dipped galvanized coating makes this fastener appropriate for outdoor, high-humidity, or corrosive environments where bare steel fasteners would be prone to rust and early failure. This screw is sold individually but requires a minimum order of 25 units per purchase.

Key Features

• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in outdoor and high-moisture environments
• Hex head drive compatible with standard hex wrenches and impact drivers
• Meets ASME B18.2.1 dimensional standards for consistent fit and performance
• AISI 1006 steel construction with material grade 1006-1022
• 0.5 inches diameter with 4.5 inches length under head for deep structural engagement

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for general structural fastening applications in wood framing, equipment mounting, and bracket installation where a 0.5 inches diameter, 4.5 inches lag screw is specified.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this size should be installed by drilling a correctly sized pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and reduce installation torque. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical components before driving fasteners in proximity to electrical systems. Use a hex socket or impact driver rated for the required installation torque. Refer to applicable building codes and structural specifications to confirm fastener sizing and spacing requirements for the specific application.
