lag bolts
Hex-headed wood screws
Lag bolts are heavy-duty fasteners with coarse threads designed to grip wood, featuring a hexagonal head turned with a wrench rather than a screwdriver.
They're used where ordinary screws lack sufficient holding power: attaching lumber to posts, securing ledger boards, mounting heavy fixtures.
Also called lag screws.
The deck was fastened with half-inch lag bolts.
