Product Description

1/2" x 1-1/2" hex-head lag screws (also called lag bolts) are heavy-duty wood fasteners with a 1/2" shank diameter and 1-1/2" overall length, typically sold partially threaded with a hex head for wrench/socket drive. They are offered in common construction finishes and grades — 18/8 (304) stainless steel for corrosion resistance (good for exterior and marine-exposed uses), hot-dip galvanized / A307 Grade A for exterior structural use, and zinc- or bright-plated steel for interior/covered applications — and are specified for wood-to-wood and structural timber connections where pilot holes are required. Common pack sizes range from small retail packs (5) up to contractor boxes (10, 20, 50), and online per-piece prices vary by material and pack size. Based on current online offers for the 1/2" x 1-1/2" hex lag (sources listed below), the market per-piece prices run roughly from about $0.82 each (bulk stainless 20‑pack) up to roughly $3.30 each (small stainless retail 5‑pack); the median of sampled offers is about $1.54 each. For resale in Dayton, IA (zip 50530) I recommend a simple, competitive local price strategy: $1.50 each for common zinc/plated or galvanized 1/2" x 1-1/2" hex lag screws sold individually, or $1.95–2.25 each for 304 stainless steel if you plan to stock small retail packs (or mark stainless at a premium and bundle into 5/10 packs). These suggested prices reflect the current online offer spread and local single-item retail convenience — adjust slightly for condition, packaging, or if you provide immediate in-store availability.
