3/8 X 2 Hex Lag Screws
Bobco's 3/8 x 2 Hex Lag Screws are heavy-duty fasteners designed for securing heavy lumber and other wood-based materials. Featuring a hex head for controlled, high-torque installation and deep, coarse threads for exceptional withdrawal resistance, these screws provide robust structural connections in framing and construction projects.
- Low Carbon Steel Construction
- Meets ASTM A307 Standards
- Hex Head for High-Torque Driving
- Coarse Thread for Wood Applications
Manufactured from high-quality low carbon steel, these hex lag screws are engineered to meet the performance requirements of ASTM A307. This standard ensures reliable tensile strength for light to medium-duty structural applications. The fastener's design includes a six-sided hexagonal head, allowing for installation with standard wrenches and sockets, which provides greater torque and control compared to Phillips or slotted drives. The gimlet point and coarse, spaced threads are specifically designed to displace wood fibers, ensuring a secure grip and minimizing splitting during installation into pre-drilled pilot holes.
These industrial-grade lag screws are a top choice for contractors and fabricators in the Los Angeles area for a wide range of MRO and construction hardware needs. They are ideal for projects requiring strong wood-to-wood or metal-to-wood connections, such as deck framing, retaining walls, landscape timber construction, and mounting heavy equipment or hardware to wooden posts and beams. Their robust design ensures long-lasting stability, making them a critical component for both commercial and residential structural work.

Finish Options
Our 3/8 x 2 Hex Lag Screws are commonly stocked with a zinc-plated finish for moderate corrosion resistance, ideal for most indoor and some protected outdoor applications. For enhanced weather protection, Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) and Stainless Steel options may be available via special order. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for availability.
How to Measure
Lag screws are measured by their diameter (shank thickness) and length. The length is measured from underneath the flat portion of the hex head to the tip of the screw. The diameter refers to the nominal size of the screw's shank.
Example: To order this product, specify `3/8" (Diameter) x 2" (Length) Hex Lag Screw, ASTM A307, Zinc-Plated.`
