Wooden dowels, or pegs, are a standard fastening element in furniture production: a cylindrical wooden pin is inserted into pre-drilled holes of two parts and holds them together due to a tight fit, often in conjunction with furniture glue. Unlike metal screws or confirmat fasteners, a wooden dowel does not leave visible metal elements on the surface of the furniture and does not create points of possible corrosion inside a humid environment. The size of 8 mm in diameter and 35 mm in length is one of the most common standards in household furniture production, suitable for assembling shelves, cabinets, chests, and other case furniture products. The pack of 50 pieces is designed for assembling one or several pieces of furniture in one go, without the need to purchase additional pieces during work. The dowel is made from wood with shallow longitudinal grooves on the surface — these grooves allow excess glue and air to escape from the hole during pressing, otherwise trapped air could hinder the tight fit of the pin. Frequently asked questions. Is a special tool needed for installing dowels? For precise drilling of holes for the dowel, it is convenient to use a drilling jig (dowel jig) or a marking template — this ensures accurate alignment of holes in the two parts being joined. Can a dowel be used without glue? Technically, the dowel holds on a tight fit without glue, but for a reliable long-term connection, glue is almost always used in furniture production. It will be useful for both a DIY enthusiast assembling or repairing furniture independently and a small carpentry workshop.
