These steel screws have corrosion-resistant finishes. Also known as lag bolts, they have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench. They press threads into material for a tight, secure hold. To prevent splitting, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw. Length is measured from under the head.
Black-oxide steel screws have a coating that protects the steel from rusting in dry environments and blends in with dark surfaces.
Zinc-plated steel screws resist corrosion in wet environments.
Hot-dipped galvanized steel screws have a thick coating for better corrosion resistance than zinc-plated steel screws. They're a good choice for ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber.

18-8 Stainless Steel Hex Head Screws for Wood

18-8 stainless steel screws have good chemical resistance and are a good choice for ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber. Also known as lag bolts, they have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench. They press threads into material for a tight, secure hold. To prevent splitting, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw. They may be mildly magnetic. Length is measured from under the head.

More corrosion resistant than 18-8 stainless steel screws, these have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water and are a good choice for ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber. Also known as lag bolts, they have a hex head for a secure grip with a wrench. They press threads into material for a tight, secure hold. To prevent splitting, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw. They may be mildly magnetic. Length is measured from under the head.

Steel Flanged Hex Head Screws for Wood

These steel screws are hot-dipped galvanized to resist corrosion in wet environments and are a good choice for ACQ-treated (arsenic-free) lumber. The flange reduces the risk of crushing material and the hex head provides a secure grip with a wrench. They press threads into material for a tight, secure hold. To prevent splitting, drill a pilot hole slightly smaller than the screw. Head height includes the flange. Length is measured from under the head.

Often referred to as four-way expansion anchors, these expand in four directions to resist loosening from vibration. To install, tap into a drilled hole with a hammer and position your fixture. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Also known as double expansion anchors, these expand from both sides for full contact and a secure hold. To install, tap into a drilled hole with a hammer and position your fixture. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. For maximum expansion, the anchor should protrude slightly above the surface before threading the screw. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

Also known as lag shields, these anchors are designed to be used with large-diameter wood screws. They reinforce the hole and resist stripping. Most diameters are available in two lengths. The shorter lengths reduce drilling time; the longer lengths provide more strength. To install, tap into a drilled hole with a hammer and position your fixture. Then, insert a lag screw and tighten. Install flush or slightly below the surface. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.

For narrow holes and small cavities where toggle anchors won't fit. To install, tap the anchor cone first into a drilled hole. Then, insert a screw or threaded rod and tighten. Pull-out strength and shear strength values are 25% of the ultimate values.
