Value Collection HXLI20250550G-100BX Hex Lag Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI20250550G-100BX is a hex head lag screw designed for structural fastening applications in wood and heavy-duty framing work. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter with a 5-1/2 inch length under the head, this fastener is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance for outdoor and exposed-environment installations. The hex drive head accepts a standard socket wrench or impact driver, making installation straightforward for contractors, carpenters, electricians, and HVAC technicians mounting equipment to wood substrates. This box contains 100 screws.

Hex head lag screws in this size are commonly used in residential and light commercial construction for securing ledger boards, attaching equipment mounting brackets, anchoring wood framing members, and fastening HVAC or electrical equipment supports to structural lumber. The 5-1/2 inch length provides adequate thread engagement in dimensional lumber and engineered wood products. The hot-dipped galvanized finish makes these suitable for exterior applications, pressure-treated lumber contact, and other environments where bare steel would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in outdoor and treated-lumber applications
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable strength for general structural fastening
• Hex head drive accepts standard sockets, wrenches, and impact drivers
• 1/4 inch diameter with 5-1/2 inch length under head for deep thread engagement

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose hex head lag screw for use in wood framing, structural lumber, and equipment mounting applications where a 1/4 inch by 5-1/2 inch galvanized fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

A pilot hole should be drilled prior to driving lag screws to prevent wood splitting and ensure proper seating — refer to applicable building codes or fastener manufacturer guidance for recommended pilot hole sizing. Drive with a socket wrench or impact driver rated for hex fasteners. When installing near or into pressure-treated lumber, confirm the galvanized coating meets applicable code requirements for contact with treated wood. Follow all relevant building codes and structural fastening specifications for the application.
