Heavy-Duty Strength for Extreme Structural Applications
The Big Timber CTX™ #17 x 16″ Construction Lag Screws are built to handle the toughest structural demands with ease. These heat-treated, hardened screws are engineered to go beyond the strength of common lag screws, featuring deep-cutting threads for maximum hold and a triple-layer bronze coating for superior corrosion resistance. With an integrated washer head and a smooth T-40 star drive, these lag screws provide a secure, professional finish that’s ready to stand up to the elements.
Key Features of Big Timber CTX™ Lag Screws
- Triple Coating for Maximum Corrosion Resistance
Rated for up to 1200 hours of corrosion resistance, the triple-coated bronze finish makes these screws ACQ-compatible, ideal for both interior and exterior projects that demand durability. - Engineered for Superior Grip and Holding Power
Featuring deep, sharp-cutting threads and an aggressive knurl, these screws are designed to securely draw lumber together while reducing the chance of splitting. The six-lobe star drive offers high torque without cam-out, extending the life of your bit and making installation a breeze. - Precision Design with Washer Head and Type 17 Tip
The built-in washer head provides increased pull-through strength, while the Type 17 point offers precise starts with reduced “walking”—no pre-drilling required. Under-head cutting nibs allow for self-countersinking, giving you a flush, professional finish.
Perfect for Structural Projects in Challenging Environments
Ideal for high-stakes applications such as log construction, timber frames, laminated beams, ledger boards, deck posts, SIP panels, and pole barns, these mountain-tested lag screws deliver reliable strength for heavy-duty projects. Certified for compliance with International Building Code and Residential Code standards, these screws are independently tested to perform.
