Structural lag screws are heavy-duty fasteners designed for high-load wood-to-wood and wood-to-masonry construction connections, commonly used in deck framing, ledger boards, and timber structures.
Eye lag screws feature a looped head instead of a standard hexagonal head, allowing users to attach ropes, cables, or hooks for suspending heavy objects from wooden beams.
Heavy-duty deck lag screws are specifically engineered to withstand harsh outdoor elements, featuring corrosion-resistant treatments that protect against moisture, temperature swings, and chemical wood treatments.
Black oxide and E-coated finishes provide excellent corrosion resistance, reduced light reflection, and a clean aesthetic look while offering enhanced surface protection in standard environments.
Yes, pre-drilling a pilot hole is typically required for traditional lag screws to avoid splitting the wood and to facilitate the driving process for maximum hold.
