Product Details
Fluted Hardwood Dowel Pins (840012) by General Tools®. Quantity: 20 Pieces. Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) Compliant. Fluted Hardwood Dowel Pins are ideal for creating strong and secure joins in furniture, cabinets, trim and special woodworking projects. These dowels are fluted with a series of parallel grooves cut along its length providing channels through which excess glue - that is used to secure the dowel pin in its hole - can escape as the dowel is inserted. This relieves the hydraulic pressure that might otherwise split timber when mating pieces are clamped together. The dowels are made of straight-grained solid hardwood which will expand when used with water-based glue for extra tight join. As an FSC (Forest Stewardship Council), certified company, General's Wood Joining Program includes wood based products that are manufactured in accordance with FSC standards.
