Value Collection R50000260 Hex Head Lag Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000260 is a hex head lag screw designed for structural fastening applications across a wide range of trades. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plated finish, this 1/4 inch diameter screw delivers solid corrosion resistance for both indoor and light outdoor installations. The 1 inch length under head makes it well suited for fastening into wood substrates where a compact bite is needed without over-penetration. Licensed contractors and skilled tradespeople use lag screws like this when securing brackets, framing components, equipment mounts, and utility supports to wood framing or blocking.

This lag screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial construction and service work. HVAC technicians reach for hex head lag screws when securing equipment pads, pipe hangers, and conduit straps to wood structure. Plumbers and electricians use them for similar mounting tasks involving wood-framed walls, floors, and ceilings. The hex drive head allows installation with a standard socket or nut driver, speeding up repetitive fastening work on the job site.

Installation Notes

Lag screws should be installed by a qualified tradesperson following applicable building codes and fastener manufacturer guidelines. Always pre-drill a pilot hole sized appropriately for the screw diameter and substrate density to prevent wood splitting and ensure full thread engagement. Use a socket wrench or impact driver with a hex socket attachment for proper seating. Do not overtighten, as doing so can strip threads or compromise the holding capacity of the fastener.
