Value Collection R63234240 Hex Head Lag Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63234240 is a hex head lag screw designed for heavy-duty fastening applications across construction, woodworking, and mechanical installations. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter with a 2-1/2 inch length under head, this lag screw is manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, providing solid corrosion resistance in both interior and exterior environments. Its hex drive head allows for high-torque installation using standard wrenches or socket sets. This fastener is well suited for trade professionals who need a reliable, corrosion-resistant lag screw for structural and general-purpose fastening tasks.

This lag screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial construction, deck framing, ledger board attachment, timber framing, and mechanical equipment mounting. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it a practical choice for outdoor or moisture-prone environments where carbon steel fasteners would be prone to rust. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC installers, and general contractors frequently use lag screws of this type to secure equipment hangers, brackets, and structural members to wood substrates.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in damp and outdoor environments
• Hex head drive for high-torque installation with standard wrenches or socket sets
• 1/4 inch diameter with 2-1/2 inch length under head for medium-depth structural fastening
• Uncoated finish maintains material integrity without added surface treatments
• Self-tapping lag thread design for direct installation into wood substrates

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4 inch hex head lag screw for general structural and equipment-mounting applications in wood framing and similar substrates.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by general contractors, carpenters, or trade professionals using a socket wrench or impact driver with the appropriate hex socket. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is strongly recommended to prevent wood splitting and to ease installation. Ensure the substrate material and fastener size comply with applicable building codes before installation. Always follow local structural fastening requirements for load-bearing applications.
