LogHog. The name says it all. LogHog screws are heavy duty log home screw fasteners designed to be safer, faster, and easier to use than most traditional log screw fasteners. LogHog screws are rapidly gaining popularity among log building companies as the ultimate heavy duty log home screw fastener because of its ease of use and its ability to pull and hold logs into position. The LogHog screw has a patented head style that countersinks during installation. No pre-drilling required. Gimlet point for fast drilling. Guaranteed by the manufacture not to disintegrate in the new pressure treated lumber. (The new pressure treatment contains a higher amount of copper which affects metal.) Sold by the box.
