EXPANDO T Dowel — Deep Grey

$4.63

A precision-engineered split dowel designed to anchor CLIP top hinges securely in thin cabinet fronts from 8 to 14 mm.

Injection-moulded from durable nylon in a deep grey finish, the EXPANDO T dowel uses a dual-grip mechanism — a steel pull-in anchor for harder materials and plastic jaws for softer substrates — to deliver a firm, reliable seat in a compact 10 mm drilling diameter. At just 6 mm drilling depth, it minimises material removal while maintaining structural integrity across a wide range of front materials. Designed for use with Blum's CLIP top hinge system, it suits wood, MDF, and composite fronts where standard dowels cannot achieve adequate hold.
