Midwest Fastener Hex Head Lag Screw, Grade 18-8 Stainless Steel
Description
Lag screw bolts are used in place of standard wood screws whenever the mounting surface must bear a heavy load. The hex head allows for lag screws to be tightened with more torque than can be used on Philips head screws, though a pilot hole is still required prior to installation. They are ideal for use on decks, framing, retaining walls, and wooden playground equipment. Lag Screws can also be used in masonry if combined with a lag shield.
- Heavy-duty wood screw with 6 sided hex bolt head.
- Made from stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.
- Lag screws can withstand significant stress over a long period of time.
- Use with a 7/16 in. drive.
- Features deep wood screw threads and does not accept a nut.
- Used in applications where standard wood screws cannot support the load (deck building, etc.)
- Requires pilot hole to be drilled and installs using wrench or socket tool.
