Value Collection HXLI205018000-025BX Hex Lag Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI205018000-025BX is a hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications in wood and structural assemblies. It measures 0.5 inches in diameter with an 18-inch length under the head, providing substantial holding depth for thick timber, structural framing, and heavy mounting situations. Constructed from steel with a zinc plating finish, this Grade 2 fastener offers corrosion resistance suitable for general construction environments. It is installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general contractors when securing equipment supports, structural brackets, or heavy fixtures to wood substrates.

This lag screw is suited for residential and light commercial construction and mechanical installation work. Common applications include anchoring equipment mounting rails, securing structural lumber connections, attaching heavy brackets to wood framing, and fastening utility support structures. The 18-inch length under head makes it well suited for applications requiring penetration through multiple layers of material or deep embedment into thick lumber and timber members.

Key Features

• 0.5-inch diameter provides substantial shear and withdrawal strength in wood fastening
• 18-inch length under head for deep embedment in thick timber or multi-layer assemblies
• Hex head drive for use with standard wrenches or impact drivers
• Steel construction with zinc plating for general corrosion resistance
• Grade 2 material classification for standard structural fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for use in wood-based structural and equipment-mounting applications where a 0.5-inch diameter, 18-inch length fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, contractors, or trade professionals using a socket wrench or impact driver sized for the hex head. A pilot hole should be drilled before installation to prevent wood splitting and to reduce drive torque. Follow applicable building codes and fastener manufacturer guidance for required embedment depth and edge distance. Do not overdrive, as this can strip the wood fibers and reduce holding strength.
