2" I-Lag™ (Eye Lag Screw) 750 SDW for 16-22 Gauge Sheet Metal with Silver Zinc Plating - 1000 pcs.

2-Inch Eye Lag Screw – 750 SDW Self-Drilling for 16–22 Gauge Sheet Metal

The 2-inch eye lag screw (750 SDW) is designed for fast, secure anchoring into 16–22 gauge sheet metal, making it ideal for interior overhead applications like suspended ceilings and light-duty hanging systems. This self-drilling I-Lag™ screw eliminates the need for pre-drilling while supporting quick installation from the ground using a Lagmaster® Pole Tool.

Nearly identical to the 750 SD, the 750 SDW features a silver zinc finish (rather than yellow), allowing installers to easily distinguish between product types during large-scale jobs. With a collar-to-tip distance of ¾ inch and an overall length of 2 inches, it provides strong holding power while keeping installs flush and consistent.

Why the 750 SDW 2-Inch Eye Lag Screw is Ideal for Interior Metal Installations

The 750 SDW is engineered specifically for use in tension applications involving light-gauge structural steel. Its sharp drill point cuts directly into 16–22 gauge sheet metal, providing a secure hold without weakening the surface or requiring extra tools. The silver zinc plating offers a clean, bright finish and light corrosion resistance ideal for interior spaces like office ceilings, classrooms, and retail units.

Installers benefit from a faster workflow thanks to the screw’s compatibility with Lagmaster® Pole Tools. This allows overhead attachment of ceiling wire or jack chain without the need for ladders, reducing fatigue and improving site safety.

Features of the 750 SDW 2-Inch Eye Lag Screw

This 2-inch eye lag screw includes a ¼″ – 14BSD thread, precision-machined for metal penetration without stripping or over-torquing. The ¾ inch collar-to-tip design keeps fasteners seated tightly against the mounting surface, helping maintain stability in lightweight grid and bracing systems.

The SDW’s silver zinc finish provides a practical alternative to yellow zinc screws when color coding matters on the job. It’s especially helpful in environments where product differentiation helps avoid mix-ups, for example, when using both in the same ceiling plan.

Compatible Applications and Installation Scenarios

This screw is designed for interior tension use only. Common jobs include suspended acoustical ceilings, jack chain-supported fixtures, signage, and lightweight conduit mounting. The sharp tip ensures reliable performance when driven into overhead metal without damaging structural integrity.

In commercial settings, these screws are often paired with components like threaded rod fasteners, angle clips, and purlin clips to complete full support assemblies. Because of their streamlined design, they’re a go-to solution for installers looking to meet code quickly and safely.

Choosing the Right Eye Lag Screw for Your Project

The 750 SDW is a smart alternative to the 750 SD when you need product distinction and a clean silver finish. It installs just as quickly, performs identically in metal substrates, and simplifies color-coded workflows. Whether you're outfitting a ceiling grid or preparing for light-duty utility installs, this 2-inch eye lag screw offers the grip, length, and speed professionals need with the added benefit of visual clarity.

Use it confidently in drop ceiling framing, MEP suspension, and low-weight utility runs where sharp penetration and reliable holding power are essential.
