Value Collection C52000498 Hex Head Lag Screw 10-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C52000498 is a 1/4-inch hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening in wood and structural applications. Each screw measures 5-1/2 inches in length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. The hex head design accepts standard wrenches and impact drivers for fast, consistent installation. This fastener resists corrosion, making it suitable for exposed or moisture-prone environments common in HVAC equipment mounting, pool equipment framing, electrical panel anchoring, and general structural trade work. Each package contains 10 screws.

This lag screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a corrosion-resistant fastener is required. Common use cases include securing equipment pads, mounting brackets, structural lumber connections, and deck or support framing associated with mechanical system installations. The 1/4-inch diameter and 5-1/2-inch shank length provide solid bite in dimensional lumber and engineered wood substrates. Trade professionals in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and pool service regularly use lag screws of this type when securing equipment supports and framing members in the field.

Installation Notes

A licensed carpenter, HVAC technician, or qualified tradesperson should install lag screws in accordance with applicable building and mechanical codes. Always drill a properly sized pilot hole before driving to prevent wood splitting and ensure full thread engagement. Use a calibrated torque wrench or impact driver set to an appropriate torque to avoid overdriving and stripping the head or substrate. Confirm that the fastener material grade is compatible with any pressure-treated lumber or dissimilar metals present at the connection point.
