Installation Notes

Lag screws of this type are typically installed by carpenters, general contractors, or licensed tradespeople using a socket wrench, impact driver with socket adapter, or ratchet. Always pre-drill a pilot hole sized appropriately for the shank and thread diameter to prevent wood splitting and ensure proper seating. Consult applicable building codes and structural requirements to confirm fastener grade and size are appropriate for the load and application before installation.
