Value Collection HXLI20620700G-001BX Hex Lag Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION HXLI20620700G-001BX is a 5/8-inch hex head lag screw with a 7-inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. Lag screws of this type are heavy-duty wood fasteners designed to anchor structural components, equipment mounting brackets, and framing assemblies. The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance suited for outdoor, exposed, or high-moisture environments. This fastener is installed by carpenters, general contractors, HVAC technicians mounting exterior equipment pads and brackets, and electricians securing conduit supports to structural lumber.

This lag screw is well suited for structural wood-to-wood connections and equipment anchorage applications in both residential and light commercial construction. Common uses include securing ledger boards, post bases, heavy-duty shelf brackets, and exterior equipment mounting frames. The 5/8-inch diameter and 7-inch length under head make it appropriate for connections requiring deep thread engagement in dimensional lumber or engineered wood members.

Key Features

• 5/8-inch nominal diameter for high load-bearing capacity in structural applications
• 7-inch length under head provides deep thread engagement in thick lumber or stacked members
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish delivers corrosion resistance for exterior and wet-location use
• Hex head drive accepts standard hex sockets and impact wrenches for efficient installation
• Grade 2 steel construction meets general structural fastener requirements

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for use in structural wood framing, equipment mounting, and general construction fastening applications where a 5/8-inch diameter lag fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

A pilot hole should be bored prior to driving this lag screw to prevent wood splitting and reduce drive torque; consult applicable building codes or fastener manufacturer tables for recommended pilot hole sizing. Installation typically requires a socket wrench, impact driver with hex socket, or ratchet. Follow local building codes and any applicable load table requirements when using lag screws in structural connections. Do not overtighten, as this can strip the wood threads and reduce holding strength.
