Will this peg fit both 1/4" and 5mm pegboard holes?
Yes, the tenon is engineered for a tight, secure fit in both 1/4" (6.35mm) and 5mm (commonly 4.8mm to 5mm) holes, making it widely compatible for pegboard systems used worldwide. -
Is the wood pre-sanded and ready for painting or staining?
Every peg is sanded smooth. For a perfectly uniform painted or stained finish, a quick light sanding may be helpful due to natural wood grain variations. -
What weight can each peg safely support?
Installed to the recommended 3/8" hole depth in a solid material, each peg supports approximately 8–10lbs—sufficient for ties, lightweight tools, or classroom items. -
Can I install these without special tools?
Yes, installation is simple: tap each peg by hand or with a soft mallet into a 3/16" (4.8mm) pre-drilled hole. No adhesives or mounting hardware required. -
Are these safe for use in Montessori and classroom environments?
With rounded edges, a smooth sanded finish, and non-toxic birch wood, these pegs are suitable for supervised use in educational settings, supporting fine motor and construction skills for ages 3+. -

Will the peg head remain visible after installation?
The rounded 3/8" head is designed for high visibility and easy grip after mounting, ensuring project appeal and ease of use. -
Can these be used for painted or customizable projects?
Absolutely; the unfinished birch surface readily accepts paint, stain, or laser engraving—ideal for branding or matching to specific décor. -
How are the pegs packaged and shipped?
Orders are typically packed in boxes compliant with ASTM D5118 standards, ensuring product protection and safe transit. -
Is the grain of the birch wood visible, and why does that matter?
Yes, the straight grain is visible. This improves the finished look and offers a more appealing, professional result after painting, staining, or engraving. -
What are the dimensional tolerances?
Each peg is manufactured according to tight tolerances (±0.01") for fit and function; minor sanding might be required for a perfect fit due to natural wood variability. -
Are these made from hardwood or softwood?
Each peg is crafted from birch—recognized for hardness, durability, and a smooth finish superior to typical softwood or plastic pegs. -
