Professional cabinetmakers rely on them to achieve seamless detailing in drawer faces, cabinet frames, or shelving units.

A creative use for this size is in handcrafted wooden games and puzzles, where plugs serve as both decorative accents and functional joinery solutions.

  • What size hole should I drill for these plugs?
    These plugs are designed for a 3/8" (9.53 mm) hole, ensuring a secure and snug fit.
  • Are these flat head or mushroom style?
    They feature a mushroom-style (button top) head that covers screw holes completely.
  • Do I need glue to install them?
    No, they are press-fit. However, wood glue may be used for permanent installations.
  • Are they ready to use as-is?
    Yes, but they are unfinished. You can paint, stain, or leave them natural depending on your project needs.
  • Will they split when pressed into a hole?
    No, high-quality maple construction resists cracking and splitting under normal installation conditions.
  • Can these plugs be sanded flush?
    No, mushroom button plugs are designed with a raised head for decorative coverage, not flush installation.
  • What finish works best on these plugs?
    Maple accepts most types of wood stains, paints, or clear finishes. Test on a spare piece if color-matching is important.
  • Can I order them in bulk for commercial projects?
    Yes, bulk packs up to 5,000 pieces are available to accommodate large woodworking or cabinetry jobs.
  • Are these made from solid wood or composite?
    These plugs are made from solid maple, providing strength, durability, and consistent appearance.
  • Do these plugs sit above the surface?
    Yes, the mushroom-style head creates a slightly raised, decorative finish rather than sitting flush.
