Value Collection HXLI20500550G-025BX Lag Screw 25-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI20500550G-025BX is a hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications in construction, HVAC equipment mounting, and general structural work. Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter with a 5.5-inch length under head, this screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish that provides corrosion resistance in outdoor and moisture-exposed environments. The hex drive head accepts standard wrench or socket tools for high-torque installation. This box contains 25 screws.

These lag screws are suited for wood-to-wood and wood-to-structural-member connections common in residential and light commercial applications. Typical uses include securing equipment pads, mounting blocking, attaching structural lumber, and anchoring supports to wood framing. The hot-dipped galvanized finish makes them appropriate for exterior use, pressure-treated lumber contact, and other corrosive-exposure conditions where bare or zinc-plated fasteners would degrade prematurely.

Key Features

• 0.5-inch diameter with 5.5-inch length under head for deep bite in structural lumber
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish provides superior corrosion resistance versus electroplated alternatives
• Grade 2 steel construction meets standard structural fastener requirements
• Hex head accepts 3/4-inch wrench or socket for high-torque driving
• Sold in a 25-piece minimum order quantity for job-lot use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for use in wood framing, structural lumber connections, and equipment mounting applications requiring a 0.5-inch diameter fastener with a 5.5-inch shank length.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter typically require a pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and reduce installation torque — consult applicable building codes or fastener manufacturer tables for pilot hole sizing based on wood species and density. A socket wrench or impact driver with a 3/4-inch socket is the standard installation tool. When installing into pressure-treated lumber, verify the galvanized coating grade meets current code requirements for treated-lumber compatibility. Follow applicable IBC or local building code provisions for structural lag screw connections.
