Value Collection 486582PR Hex Head Lag Screw 1/2 in 7 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 486582PR is a hex head lag screw used in heavy-duty fastening applications across construction, mechanical, and trade installations. Sized at 1/2 inch in diameter with a 7-inch length under the head, this lag screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. The hex drive head allows installation with a standard socket wrench or impact driver. This fastener is commonly installed by carpenters, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians when securing equipment mounts, structural lumber connections, or heavy brackets to wood substrates.

This lag screw is suited for residential and light commercial fastening tasks where a large-diameter, long-reach fastener is required. Typical applications include securing joist hangers, wall ledgers, equipment mounting pads, pipe hangers, and similar structural connections into wood framing or timber. The zinc plated finish provides a measure of protection in dry to mildly humid interior environments. Minimum order quantity is 25 pieces; package quantity is 1.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch screw diameter for high-load fastening in wood substrates
• 7-inch length under head for deep penetration into thick lumber or timber
• Hex head drive accepts standard 3/4-inch socket or impact wrench
• Zinc plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for interior use
• Grade 2 steel construction meets standard commercial fastener requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/2-inch hex head lag screw for general structural and equipment-mounting fastening applications in wood framing and timber construction.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter typically require a pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and to allow proper seating of the fastener. Use a socket wrench or impact driver rated for the required torque load. Follow applicable building codes, including IRC or IBC provisions, for structural fastener schedules when used in load-bearing connections. Ensure the substrate material and thickness are appropriate for the fastener length before installation.
