Wood Dowels With Secondary Operations

We make wood dowels with in-house secondary operations like drilling, slotting, and custom grooves to meet specific manufacturing needs. They’re built around your specs to keep your process moving without delays or adjustments on your end.

We work with a wide range of wood species, including both hardwoods and softwoods. Some of the most common include ash, maple, oak, cherry, poplar, and white birch — but we also handle more specific requests depending on the project. If you don’t see your preferred species listed, just ask.

These operations can be applied to dowels from 1/4″ to 2″ in diameter, with custom lengths and tolerances available. Whether you’re working on small precision parts or heavier structural components, we’ll machine them to fit your process.

If your project requires shaped or pre-drilled components, explore how our CNC wood flatwork solutions complement secondary operations for dowel production.
