Product Expert Notes
These 1/4 in. x 3 in. eye lags are the standard choice for wood-joist suspended ceiling hanger wire; pre-drilling pilot holes keeps the wood from splitting and speeds driving. Thread the wire through the eye and make at least a few tight twists before snipping the excess. For concrete or metal decking, step up to the Tool Pro 1/4 in. x 4-1/4 in. eye lag toggle assembly instead.
Wear eye protection and gloves when driving lag screws and twisting or cutting hanger wire, as wire ends and fastener edges are sharp.
