"IMSCREWS 1/4 x 2 Heavy-Duty Lag Screws - 304 Stainless Steel (5 pcs)

The Structural Standard for Outdoor Projects
When standard wood screws lack the shear resistance for critical joints, these 1/4 x 2 Lag Bolts deliver industrial performance. Ideal for securing gate hinges, post-to-beam connectors, or heavy brackets to structural timber. The 2-inch length provides significant penetration without compromising the integrity of 4x posts.

Vise-Like Clamping Power
Our partially threaded shank features a smooth upper section that allows the bolt to spin freely in the outer board. This draws the timber members together into a gap-free, rock-solid joint, eliminating the bridging effect where boards remain loose—a common failure in full-thread screws for structural joining.

304 Stainless Exterior Defense
Forged from premium 18-8 (304) Stainless Steel for ultimate weather resistance. compatible with ACQ pressure-treated lumber, preventing chemical corrosion and unsightly rust streaks on high-value cedar, redwood, or deck framing.

Technical FAQ

¡ñ Why 2 length? Perfect for passing through 1 or 1.5 boards with a deep-core thread anchor in the base post.
¡ñ Marine use? Highly resistant to corrosion in freshwater and humid coastal areas.

Key Features

• SUPERIOR CLAMPING FORCE The partially threaded design ensures the smooth shank stays in the outer board, allowing threads to pull timber members together tightly for a gap-free joint.
• STRUCTURAL DEPTH CONTROL At 2 inches long, these bolts provide deep-reach stability for 2x4 framing and outdoor furniture, offering a secure hold without over-penetrating standard lumber.
• 304 EXTERIOR STABILITY Forged from premium 304 (18-8) stainless steel to prevent rust in high-moisture garden environments. Compatible with ACQ pressure-treated lumber.
• STABLE HEX INTERFACE Precision hex head ensures a secure 7/16 socket fit, providing stable torque transfer and reducing slipping compared to traditional Phillips head screws.
• MANDATORY PRE-DRILLING To protect the 304 stainless shaft and prevent wood splitting, pre-drilling a pilot hole (3/16 for softwoods, 7/32 for hardwoods) is mandatory.
