Ratings & Reviews for Power Pro 5/16-in x 6-in Bronze Ceramic Round -Head Exterior Lag screws
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise these lag screws for exceptional holding power and reliability in demanding wood projects, with nearly 9 in 10 expressing strong satisfaction. Reviewers consistently highlight superior grip, aggressive threads, and the Torx drive system that prevents stripping and enables smooth installation with impact drivers. Many report successfully securing heavy components like 4x4s, deck beams, and mounts supporting over 1,000 lbs without movement. While most users install without pre-drilling, some note that dense or treated wood benefits from pilot holes and proper technique. A few mention higher pricing compared to alternatives, though most consider the performance worth the investment.

Strong holding power, now if only I could afford to buy some boards to build the deck
Easy to use
Would RecommendUsed 3 of these to secure a 4x4 to another 4x4. Predrilled small holes, drenched them in wood glue, drilled them into place. Very secure now.

Too expensive
Would Not RecommendAfter purchasing and bringing home, researched online $57 vs $8, I returned the product to Lowe’s for refund,. Lowe’s is charging way too much for this and should review their pricing! Product is superb and would purchase again, but not from Lowe’s.

These are Fantastic
Would RecommendI chose these to use to attach my deck posts instead of standard galvanized or stainless lags. When you factor the cost of a standard lag and a washer (washer not always necessary) these are about the same price. When you factor in that you dont have to pre drill holes these are a clearly superior product. The only issue I had was figuring out the correct star bit to use. You have to use a T27 star bit or they wont go all the way in. I will never buy another galvanized or stainless lag bolt...

Impact drive is important
Would RecommendI've used a lot of these over the years, mostly on decks. I put a few into a VERY hard tree when building a treehouse and they stopped about halfway in. I got out my BIG impact and they went in a little further. I had to take them out and pre-drill, then they went in like butter. I was a bit surprised that the big impact didn't break them or strip out the bit. Usually I put them in with a DeWalt 18V or a 20V impact driver and they go in with no trouble. The key, I believe, is using an impact dri...
Cheap Soft Metal with a Nice Bronze Colored Finish
Would Not RecommendI bought 8 of these at Lowe's for attaching a banister to a post. The first 3 went in like butter. The next two must have hit a denser part of the post or a knot .. as soon as there was a bit of resistance the drive bit stripped the star hole in the screw head .. now I have two lag screws that have nice round holes and the round head does not lend to the use of a wrench to complete driving them in. At $2.00 a pop, they are not worth it!
Not Good
Would Not RecommendThe head stripped right out on the first one. I returned the remaining screws. At over $2.00 each I was expecting much better.

Aggressive threads
Would RecommendI like this product because it has very aggressive threads making it easy to drive w/o pre-drilling. They also save me money due to the large head the most of the time does not require a washer. I only wish Lowes had a better selection of lengths available.

Tough screws!
Would RecommendI've twisted off more old fashioned lag bolts than I can remember. I bought a few of these to beef up a gate hinge and was delighted with them. I've used them a few times since then, every time they drive in easily, look good and pulled everything together nice and tight. Be sure to get a Torx bit to fit them, chuck it into a 1/2" drill and these things will go in like magic. The Torx will usually never slip.
Simple to use and look great
Would RecommendThese lag screws are easy to use and work great. Used them to secure my new main breaker panel and also used them in the past to secure metal banister to hard wood flooring. Very strong and large head covers slotted holes without the use of washers.
