Midwest Fasteners Grade 2 Zinc Plated Steel Hex Head Lag Screw
Midwest Fasteners offers this Grade 2 / ASTM A307 hex head lag screw across a full range of diameters and lengths built for heavy-duty wood fastening. The lineup spans diameters from 1/4" up to 1/2" and lengths from 1" up to 10", including sizes such as 1/4" x 1", 1/4" x 3-1/2", 5/16" x 5", 3/8" x 4", 1/2" x 6", and 1/2" x 10". Every size is built from Grade 2 / ASTM A307 steel with a zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance and features the same hex head for high-torque driving with a wrench or socket. Lag screws like these are the go-to choice for heavy-duty wood-to-wood and wood-to-masonry connections where standard wood screws fall short, giving contractors and builders the large-diameter, deep-penetrating holding power needed for structural work. Each size is sold individually (Each).
Key Features
- Size Range: Diameters from 1/4" to 1/2" and lengths from 1" to 10", covering everything from thin stock to thick, deep wood connections.
