Value Collection R50000267 Hex Head Lag Screw Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000267 is a hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications in construction, structural framing, and mechanical installations. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc plating finish, this screw measures 0.5 inches in diameter with a 3.5-inch length under the head. The hex drive head allows installation with a standard socket wrench or impact driver, making it well suited for high-torque driving into wood, timber, and structural lumber. Licensed contractors, framers, and trade professionals rely on lag screws of this type when a through-bolt is not practical or accessible.

This lag screw is used in residential and commercial construction where a heavy fastener is needed to anchor ledger boards, beam connections, joist hangers, and similar structural wood assemblies. It is also commonly used in HVAC and plumbing rough-in work for securing pipe hangers, equipment pads, and support brackets to wood framing. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance suitable for interior and protected exterior environments.

Key Features

• Grade 2 steel construction for reliable tensile and shear strength in structural fastening
• Zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance in interior and covered exterior applications
• Hex head drive accepts standard socket wrenches and impact drivers
• 0.5-inch diameter shank for high load-bearing fastening into dimensional lumber and timbers
• 3.5-inch length under head provides deep thread engagement in wood substrates

Compatibility

Designed as a standard hex head lag screw for use in wood structural assemblies, equipment mounting, and support bracket installations requiring a 0.5-inch diameter fastener.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter typically require a pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and to ease installation; consult applicable building codes for pilot hole sizing requirements. Use a socket wrench or impact driver sized to fit the hex head. Verify that the substrate and connection meet applicable load requirements per local building codes before installation. Always follow applicable IBC or IRC structural fastening guidelines when used in load-bearing assemblies.
