Wood Screw Anchors

A wood screw anchor, also known as a lag screw anchor, is a type of fastener designed for secure attachment of objects to wooden surfaces. It is commonly used in woodworking and construction applications where a reliable connection to wood is required. Key characteristics of wood screw anchors include: Design: A wood screw anchor typically consists of a screw-like body with external threads designed for wood, a washer, and sometimes a nut. The screw body may have a hex head or another type of head for driving with a wrench or screwdriver. Installation: To install a wood screw anchor, a pilot hole is drilled into the wood to a depth slightly shorter than the length of the anchor. The anchor is then inserted and driven into the hole using a wrench or screwdriver. As it is tightened, the external threads grip the wood securely. Versatility: Wood screw anchors are widely used for various applications in woodworking, including fastening cabinets, shelves, brackets, and other fixtures to wooden surfaces. Wood screw anchors provide a strong and durable connection in wood, making them an essential component in carpentry, furniture making, and construction. They are available in different sizes and configurations to suit various woodworking needs.
