Value Collection TEB-LS386B-050BX Lag Shield Anchor

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TEB-LS386B-050BX is an alloy steel lag shield anchor designed for fastening lag screws into masonry substrates such as concrete, brick, or block. The anchor measures 3/8 inch in diameter and requires a minimum embedment depth of 2.5 inches for secure holding strength. Lag shield anchors expand as the lag screw is driven in, creating a mechanical interlock with the surrounding masonry. This anchor is typically installed by commercial contractors, plumbers, electricians, and HVAC mechanics when securing equipment or pipe supports to concrete walls or floors.

This lag shield anchor is suited for residential and light commercial applications where threaded fasteners must be anchored into solid masonry or hollow block. Common install scenarios include mounting pipe hangers, equipment brackets, conduit straps, and structural supports. The 3/8 inch thread size accommodates standard 3/8 inch lag screws. The alloy steel construction provides the tensile and shear strength needed for mechanical and trade installations where load-bearing fasteners are required.

Key Features

• Alloy steel construction for high tensile and shear load capacity
• 3/8 inch diameter fits standard 3/8 inch lag screws
• 2.5 inch minimum embedment depth for secure masonry engagement
• Expansion design mechanically locks anchor to substrate as lag screw is driven
• Suitable for concrete, brick, and block substrates

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use lag shield anchor compatible with standard 3/8 inch lag screws for use in solid masonry and block applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed tradespeople including electricians, plumbers, and HVAC mechanics following applicable local codes. Drill the correct diameter hole in the masonry substrate to the required embedment depth before inserting the anchor. Ensure the hole is free of dust and debris before seating the shield. Drive the lag screw into the anchor without over-torquing, which can crack the substrate or strip the anchor.
