Anchor bolts are heavy-duty fasteners used to secure elements to concrete or masonry supports. Lag bolts, on the other hand, are used to fasten wooden elements to other wood or metal surfaces, but they can also serve as lighter anchors in concrete with the help of a wall plug. A lag bolt is a hybrid type of fastener with a dual thread: one end for wood and the other a metric end for nuts or wall plugs.
