Value Collection 782072PS 1/4 in Hex Lag Screw 5 in Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 782072PS is a 1/4 inch hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening in wood and similar structural substrates. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this lag screw provides reliable corrosion resistance in both interior and exterior applications. The 5 inch length under head gives ample thread engagement for solid pull-out strength. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors use lag screws like this to anchor equipment brackets, pipe hangers, duct supports, and electrical enclosures to wood framing. The hex head drive style accepts a standard hex socket or wrench for consistent, high-torque installation.

This lag screw is suited for residential and light commercial construction and mechanical trades where a corrosion-resistant fastener is required. Typical applications include mounting pipe straps, conduit supports, equipment pads, and structural brackets to wood members. The 18-8 stainless steel grade performs well in damp or outdoor environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this size are typically installed by licensed tradespeople using a hex socket and impact driver or torque wrench. Always pre-drill a pilot hole sized to manufacturer guidelines to prevent wood splitting and to achieve proper thread engagement. Shut off or de-energize any equipment before drilling into panels or enclosures in the fastening zone. Follow applicable building and mechanical codes for fastener spacing and load requirements.
