SPAX PowerLags Get a New Look

Sara Graves -

SPAX PowerLags engineered fasteners are getting a colorful new look this season. The fasteners will continue to be the same high-quality product, simply with a color change to a black top coat in place of the original green. The high corrosion resistance (HCR) coating provides a double barrier. First plated with a zinc base coat, then finished with a durable top coat, they are engineered, tested and inspected to hold up to the harshest conditions.

The structural wood screws are approved for exterior use and come in both hex and washer head styles for a more decorative accent or finish. They are IRC/IBC code compliant.

SPAX PowerLags features include:

  • No pre-drilling required, for faster, easier installation
  • Built-on washer head design eliminates the need and extra cost of a separate washer
  • Patented thread serrations that require up to 40% less driving torque and help to prevent cracking
  • Industry-setting property values for withdrawal and head pull-through
  • Accurate sizing
