Dowels are cylindrical rod-like structures made of wood, plastic, or metal, used in woodworking and construction to join two pieces together or to reinforce joints. Dowels offered through Buildworld are ideal for edge-to-edge, edge-to-surface, and mitre joints, and offer a clean, seamless finish. From pre-cut dowel pins to full-length rods that can be trimmed to size, our selection satisfies the needs of every project.
Our dowels or dowel rods come in different diameters and lengths, to satisfy a wide range of applications. These serve as excellent alternatives to mortise and tenon joinery, mainly reinforcing glued woodworking joints. They can also work well as curtain poles, rails and are useful in plugging screw holes. These are made using oak, pine and light hardwood for durability and matching with the charming, rustic appearance of wood. These can be easily varnished, oiled or painted after sanding.
These are excellent products for securing joints without the use of screws or nails, so you have a tight, sturdy joint, without affecting the visual appeal. They seamlessly merge with the furniture while giving the piece greater structural integrity. Whatever their use, our dowels ensure precision, durability, and ease of use.
