Lag Bolts Galvanized Decking Hex Head Steel Phillips Large Wood Screws

Lag bolts also commonly known as lag screws, lag screws are some of the toughest fasteners. Lag bolts are used in wood construction for heavier load applications than most wood screws can support. These extremely sturdy fasteners are usually used to connect heavy lumber or other heavy materials that are bearing an intense load. Ever Hardware provides custom-made fasteners and customizable packaging.
These screws differ from normal wood, self-drilling, or sheet metal screws. Compared to most ordinary screws, lag screws are massive in size. Most lag screws are at least one inch long and ?-inch thick.
For example, wood screws are used when connecting an application with only wood materials. These wood screws boast coarse threading, but that threading does not encompass the length of the screw. Normal wood screws thread as they enter the wood, where lag screws require a hole to be drilled first. Lag screws also use a nut to add extra strength and security to help hold things together. Used for intense load applications, lag screws can support a much heavier load than the average sheet metal or wood screw.

Phillips drive bits are often designated by the letters “PH”, plus a size code 0000, 000, 00, 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 (by order of increasing size); the numerical bit size codes do not necessarily correspond to nominal screw size numbers.
