Species We Commonly Use

We regularly produce wooden dowels using species like White Birch, Maple, Oak, and Poplar, each chosen for their reliability in machining and finishing.

White Birch is often preferred for its smooth texture and clean grain, while maple and oak offer exceptional strength and durability. We also offer other species upon request, including softwoods and imported hardwoods, depending on your functional and aesthetic requirements.

All domestic species are harvested in a sustainable manner, as a matter of course, in US forestry regulations.

Secondary Operations to Match Your Specifications

We offer a wide range of secondary machining options to ensure your dowels are ready for use right off the line. These include drilling, tapering, sanding, chamfering, and slotting, among others. Whether you need dowels shaped to fit complex assemblies or custom ends for easier application, our team will machine each piece to your exact specifications.
