Value Collection R63234882 Hex Lag Screw 3/8x4 Ss 18-8

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63234882 is a hex head lag screw intended for heavy-duty fastening applications where corrosion resistance is required. Constructed from grade 18-8 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this screw measures 3/8 inches in diameter and 4 inches in length under the head. The hex drive format accepts standard hex sockets or wrenches, making installation straightforward in the field. It is well suited for structural and mechanical fastening tasks in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions where carbon steel hardware would corrode prematurely.

This lag screw is commonly used in construction, HVAC equipment mounting, plumbing support brackets, electrical enclosure anchoring, and general trade applications where a corrosion-resistant threaded fastener is needed. The 3/8-inch shank diameter and 4-inch under-head length make it appropriate for medium to heavy timber, composite, and structural substrates. Installers in plumbing, HVAC, and electrical trades will find this size appropriate for securing equipment supports, pipe hangers, and structural anchor points.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and outdoor environments
• Uncoated finish eliminates coating failure or delamination concerns over time
• Hex head drive accepts standard sockets and wrenches for secure torque application
• 3/8-inch diameter shank suitable for medium to heavy load-bearing fastening
• 4-inch length under head provides deep thread engagement in timber and structural substrates

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8-inch hex head lag screw for use in general trade fastening applications including equipment mounting, structural anchoring, and support bracket installation.

Installation Notes

Lag screws of this diameter typically require a pilot hole to prevent substrate splitting and to allow full thread engagement. A hex socket or wrench sized for the head is required for proper installation. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical equipment before drilling or driving fasteners in service areas. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer guidelines for load ratings and pilot hole sizing.
