Product Details

These lag or expansion shields are used for fastening lag screws into fastening into wood and concrete. The expansion shield acts as an anchoring point into a concrete slab or foundation, expanding when the screw threads are engaged during installation. Common uses include frames, and outdoor play equipment. When used in conjunction with a lag screw it can also be used in many masonry applications. Use in pre-drilled hole. The length of a lag screw is measured from the underside of the head to the pointed tip of the screw.

    Answer This Question

    A:  We would not recommend using Everbilt 1/4 in. x 1-1/2 in. Zinc-Alloy Long Lag Shields (3-Pieces) for pool hand rail installation. Zinc is not a suitable finish for any outdoor pool application.

        I had to mount a couple of boards onto the side of the house for the deck I was building. The location where I was mounting those boards was on brick. I drilled holes in the brick and then inserted the Lag Shields and then mounted the boards to the brick. I actually used 20 Lag Shields and 5 inch zinc Lags to mount the boards to the brick. Was all very easy.

        Excellent lag shield! I needed a large one for some oak doors that weigh a alot, so the hinges are large, and the lag needs to be large enough for the job. Perfect match!

          300+ pound rated lag shield. At 2 1/2 inches long, this is meant to anchor heavy items in concrete. Lag shields are essential if you're mounting or anchoring anything of weight into concrete. Something I particularly like about these lag shields is that the spreading teeth start about one quarter of the way down. That means the shield will start biting into the concrete early in the process. Although medium duty rated, 300 plus pounds is significant.

          I have used these type of anchors before when I have needed to secure something in some sort of masonry product from concrete to red brick and have always trusted them to hold well and not to break while being retched down tightly. An additional measure that I have always taken because I have used them in commercial areas where I wanted to make doubly sure they performed as needed I would squirt some liquid nail down in the hold before inserting the anchor. Does it need liquid nail?? Probably not but its always made me feel better at the end of the job.

          I needed to install a TV wall bracket and the Lag bolts provided by manufacturer did not grip in the cinder block to support the bracket. The Lag shield’s I purchased went into the cinder block and widen its grip enabling me to secure bracket and TV safety.

              The lag shields did exactly what I wanted done. I was having trouble keeping my flag mount staying on the brick wall. These shields were easy to put in and held the bolts nicely.

                Had to mount fixtures onto a tiled concrete block wall-these standard lag shields did the job.
