Hillman Stainless Steel Hex-Head Lag Screws for Outdoor Use, 3/8 x 8 in
Hillman Stainless Steel Hex-Head Lag Screws for Outdoor Use, 3/8 x 8 in
Manufactured to be extremely sturdy, lag screws are some of the toughest fasteners you can buy, and this Hillman Stainless Steel Hex Lag Screw is built for heavy, load-bearing connections in the harshest outdoor conditions. It attaches heavy objects to wood and anchors into masonry, driving deep, coarse threads that bite in and pull the joint tight for a strong, lasting hold. The six-sided hex head is the key to that strength: instead of a screwdriver, you drive it with a wrench, socket, or impact driver, which delivers far more torque and lets the long eight-inch shank pull heavy timbers together. Pre-drill a pilot hole sized to the shank, then drive the 3/8 x 8 inch lag screw home until the head seats firmly against the surface. Made from solid stainless steel, the screw offers outstanding corrosion protection along with a clean, polished look. That lets it hold its strength outdoors in wet, coastal, and chemically treated-lumber settings for the long term, where a plated screw would eventually rust and stain, making it the right choice for exposed structural work. Use this stainless lag screw for retaining walls, deck frames, docks, piers, playsets, and other outdoor structures exposed to weather and moisture. Its length and corrosion resistance suit demanding, load-bearing jobs. Pre-drilling and a stainless washer under the head give the cleanest, strongest, longest-lasting result. From the Manufacturer Hex Lag Screws are used for directly fastening into wood surfaces. They are used with a lag shield, and lag screws can be used in masonry applications. The hex head is six-sided and ideal for easy driving and quick installation. The threads on lag screws are designed to embed into the wood, rather than relying on a nut to secure the connection.
