Why choose hot-dipped galvanized lag screws?
Hot-dipped galvanizing protects against corrosion in humid or coastal environments, prolonging the life of your construction projects and reducing maintenance over time.
Installation Tips
- Pre-drill pilot holes to prevent timber from splitting and to ensure accurate alignment.
- Use a compatible driver or socket to tighten until seated, keeping a snug fit without over-torquing.
- For hardwoods or dense timbers, consider slightly larger pilot holes or a longer lag screw to achieve full embedment.
Maintenance
Inspect fastenings periodically in outdoor setups and re-tighten as needed to maintain a secure connection against the elements.
