With coarse threads that dig in, these screws secure posts and beams in outdoor and wet environments. They won't degrade from moisture or chemically treated wood, such as ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber. The hex head's six contact points keep sockets in place to avoid slipping and stripping on the drive. To tighten, use a wrench or six-point hex socket. Also known as lag bolts.

Drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw to prevent splitting. Length is measured from under the head.

A built-in flange protects surfaces from splitting and pull-through by spreading pressure over a large area. These screws are often used to secure wooden posts and beams because their coarse threads dig in. The hex head's six contact points keep sockets in place to avoid slipping and stripping the drive. To tighten, use a wrench or six-point hex socket. Also known as lag bolts.

Drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw to prevent splitting. Head height includes the flange. Length is measured from under the flange.

Also known as hanger bolts, use these studs to hang, mount, and fasten parts to wood structures. Install them with a stud driver, or create wrench flats by threading two nuts onto the stud and jamming them together.

These screws won't rust, so you can use their coarse threads to secure posts and beams outdoors. They also won't degrade from chemically treated wood, such as ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber.

Offering up to twice the strength of double expansion anchors, these US-made anchors expand in four directions for a superior grip in floors, walls, and ceilings. You can even use them to mount heavy machinery with constant motion, such as conveyors and vibrating feeders, because their ridges lock them in place to resist vibration. All of these anchors expand along their full length to distribute the gripping force, so they won’t crack soft materials. You can use them in concrete near edges, corners, or other weak points as an alternative to drop-in anchors.

To install, tap the anchor into a drilled hole. Insert a screw or threaded rod through your machinery and into the anchor. Then, tighten to expand the anchor. All create a permanent female-threaded connection that lets you remove and reinstall a screw or threaded rod.

Also known as double expansion anchors, these expand from both sides for full contact with your hole’s walls. They’re often used to mount handrails, shelving, and light fixtures. Since the gripping force is distributed along the entire length of the anchor, it won’t crack soft materials like block and brick. You can use these anchors as an alternative to drop-in anchors in concrete near edges, corners, or other weak points, but they are not as strong.

To install, hammer into a drilled hole and position your component. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. For maximum expansion, the anchor should protrude slightly above the surface before threading the screw. All create a permanent female-threaded connection that lets you remove and reinstall a screw or threaded rod. They cannot be used in overhead applications.
