Value Collection R63234641 Hex Head Lag Screw 3/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63234641 is a 3/8 inch hex head lag screw with a 1 inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. Lag screws of this type are heavy-duty fasteners designed to anchor materials into wood framing, structural lumber, or similar substrates. The hex head drive allows installation with a socket wrench or hex bit driver, providing reliable torque transfer. Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction delivers corrosion resistance suitable for both interior and exterior applications where moisture exposure is a concern.

This lag screw is used across a wide range of trade applications including HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing fixture support, electrical panel and conduit anchoring, and general structural fastening tasks. It is well suited for residential and light commercial work where a corrosion-resistant fastener is required. The 3/8 inch diameter and 1 inch length under head make it appropriate for shallow-depth anchoring into wood blocking, beams, or framing members.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments
• Hex head drive compatible with standard socket wrenches and hex bit drivers
• Uncoated finish — no galvanic coating to interfere with stainless material properties
• 3/8 inch diameter provides substantial shear and withdrawal strength in wood substrates
• 1 inch length under head suited for shallow structural anchoring applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8 inch hex head lag screw for use in wood framing and structural fastening applications across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction trades.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this size should be installed by drilling a properly sized pilot hole to prevent wood splitting and to ensure full thread engagement. Use a socket wrench or impact driver with the appropriate hex socket to drive the fastener. Do not overdrive — excessive torque can strip the head or fracture the substrate. Consult applicable building codes for fastener spacing and withdrawal load requirements in structural applications.
