Value Collection HXLI205005500-050BX Hex Lag Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI205005500-050BX is a 1/2 inch hex head lag screw with a 5-1/2 inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plated finish. Lag screws of this size are heavy-duty wood fasteners used to secure structural and load-bearing connections in construction, equipment mounting, and trade installations. The hex drive head allows installation with a standard socket wrench or impact driver. This box contains 50 screws, making it suitable for job-lot purchasing by contractors and tradespeople working on larger projects.

This lag screw is suited for structural wood fastening applications including joist hangers, ledger board attachment, equipment pad anchoring, and utility mounting applications common in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing rough-in work. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance for interior and protected exterior environments. At 1/2 inch diameter and 5-1/2 inches under head, this fastener delivers significant holding strength in dimensional lumber and engineered wood substrates.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch diameter with 5-1/2 inch length under head for deep penetration into structural lumber
• Hex head drive for installation with standard socket wrenches or impact drivers
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-purpose structural fastening

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter require a pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and to allow proper seating of the threads — consult applicable building codes for pilot hole sizing requirements. Installation is performed with a socket wrench or impact driver sized to the hex head. Structural fastener placement should conform to applicable building codes and engineered connection schedules where required. Always verify load-bearing requirements with the appropriate code or engineering reference before installation.
