Are bungs suitable for use in barrels, drums, or liquid storage?
Yes. We produce tapered bungs designed for use in wooden barrels, drums, and other storage containers, including options for tight sealing and chemical-free wood types.
What types of plugs work best for boat decking or marine use?
We manufacture marine-grade wood plugs using durable hardwoods like teak or mahogany upon request. These work well for sealing countersunk screws on boat decks.
Are wood plugs available unfinished for on-site finishing?
All of our plugs, bungs, and wedges are available unfinished and ready for final finishing in the field or during the assembly process.
Can plugs be color-coded for visual identification?
Yes, we offer color finishes and painted options for high-volume orders.
Do you offer staining or clear-coat finishing options?
While we specialize in raw wood component manufacturing, we do offer finishing capabilities for large runs upon request. Contact us for more information!
Are sanding or surface treatments available for decorative applications?
We can provide sanding and finishing prep for plugs and bungs used in visible applications. Let us know your requirements for grain direction, finish-readiness, or matching.
Can we order face grain plugs for cosmetic patching or hiding fasteners?
Yes, face grain plugs are often requested for finish carpentry, cabinetry, and stair parts for visual continuity and grain matching.
Can wood wedges be manufactured to prevent slippage or vibration?
Yes. Our wedges can be custom-tapered and shaped to provide reliable friction and hold, even in vibration-prone installations or load-bearing joints.
What wood types are best for tight sealing or compression-fit plugs?
We often recommend harder woods like birch, maple, or poplar for compression-fit plugs, depending on the holding strength and sealing pressure required.
Are your plugs suitable for sealing liquid or airtight containers?
Our wooden bungs are commonly used for sealing barrels and drums and can be manufactured to tight tolerances. For applications requiring airtight sealing, we recommend verifying specifications based on moisture exposure and compression fit.
