Value Collection HXLI205010000-025BX Hex Head Lag Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI205010000-025BX is a hex head lag screw used to fasten heavy structural components where a strong mechanical hold is required. The screw measures 1/2 inch in diameter with a 10 inch length under head, providing substantial thread engagement for load-bearing connections in wood framing, decking, and structural assemblies. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plating finish, this fastener offers corrosion resistance suitable for general construction environments. Carpenters, general contractors, and trades professionals working on structural framing or equipment mounting applications install this type of fastener regularly.

This lag screw is appropriate for residential and light commercial construction applications including timber framing, ledger board attachment, post and beam connections, and heavy equipment anchoring to wood substrates. The hex head drive style allows installation with a standard socket wrench or impact driver, making it a practical choice for high-volume framing work where consistent torque and speed are important. The zinc plated finish provides a baseline level of protection against surface oxidation in dry to moderately exposed environments.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch diameter provides high load capacity for structural fastening applications
• 10 inch length under head allows deep thread engagement in thick lumber or timber
• Hex head drive style compatible with standard sockets and impact drivers
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general structural fastener requirements
• Zinc plated finish resists surface corrosion in typical construction environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for use in wood-to-wood and wood-to-metal structural connections typical of residential and light commercial construction applications.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter and length should be installed by a qualified carpenter or general contractor following applicable building codes. Always pre-drill a pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and to reduce drive torque. Consult local building codes and span tables for proper fastener spacing and edge distances in structural applications. Do not install in applications exceeding the rated capacity of a Grade 2 fastener.
