Specifications
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Light hardwood |
| Profile | Round dowel rod |
| Nominal Size | 21mm x 21mm |
| Length | 2400mm |
| Finish | Smooth, sanded |
| Treatment | Untreated |
What it's used for
- Furniture joinery and dowel joints as an alternative to mortise and tenon construction
- Curtain poles and lightweight hanging rails in domestic interiors
- Beadings and decorative detail work in cabinets and fitted furniture
- Craft projects, tool handles and general workshop or DIY applications
Fitting and handling
Allow the dowel to acclimatise to the room temperature and humidity of its intended location for 24 to 48 hours before cutting or fitting, particularly if it is being used inside a heated building. For joinery joints, apply a suitable PVA or woodworking adhesive evenly along the dowel before insertion, and clamp until fully cured. The untreated surface takes paint, varnish, oil and wax readily, so finishing is straightforward once the piece is cut to length and lightly sanded.
FAQ
What diameter is a 21mm dowel rod?
This dowel rod has a nominal diameter of 21mm, meaning the finished round section measures approximately 21mm across. It is a common size for furniture dowel joints and lightweight curtain pole applications in UK homes.
Can I use this dowel rod outdoors?
