These teak plugs have no quality control

Plugs are not to spec. Many are too large and unusable

OK plugs

The plugs are a little undersized for 3/8. They do not fit tightly in a 3/8"" hole.

Undersized

I found that the bungs were just under 3/8"". Many wouldn't stay in the holes. There were also several that had gouges taken out of the sides due to being drilled out too close together. I would not purchase them again.

Quality Control

5 years ago
Using these (1/2"" size) to reset a couple hundred screws on a teak boat deck. Had to throw out appx 10-15 % of the plugs in the last package of 100 because they had flat spots up the side and were unusable. Other issue is a number of them were on the short side. No real taper or chambered edge to the plugs either...Think I'll find a new source as these are just being bought and resold by JD, it's not like they are manufacturing the product in their facility.

Poor quality control

8 years ago
Sometimes I order these bungs, and the taper end is good. Last time I ordered 1/2"" bungs, they measured in at 15/32"" on the smaller (tapered) end, and 17/32"" on the larger end. Great. Other times, its 1/2"" on the smaller tapered end, and 9/16"" on the larger end. I split some expensive teak deck planks before I realized what was going on. How about some quality control?

I looked all over and the only supplier that carried 7/16"" teak plugs was Jamestown. They worked well, were priced right, and delivered quickly. What more could you ask?

I built a new teak swim platform for my trawler. It was constructed with 7/8"" wide teak strips that are glued and screwed together. I used the 7/16"" plugs to fill the visible screw holes. That was about 50 holes. Jamestown was the only source I could find for 7/16"" teak plugs.

Q: curious about what size to order --i have a 3/8 hole so do i order 3/8 plug or bigger

4 years ago
2 Answers

A: You would use the same size bung as the hole. Unless in removing the bungs, you made the hole slightly bigger, the same size should be snug enough. There are lots of theories on the best practice to use when replacing bungs. Some use varnish on the sides of the bungs while others use epoxy. I have found the epoxy to work very well.

Q: I have read that the bungs should be : 1. just tapped into the hole, 2. used with a drop of varnish to hold in and be waterproofed and 3. used with epoxy for the same reasons. They are going into teak flooring in a cockpit of an open sailboat. What's best ? Ensign Pulver

A: Hi I use water proof glue . Usuallly I put the glue on a small piece cardboard. I just dab the bottom of the bung, then I used a small wood matel to hit it in, I listen for the bung to stop light taps. When I cut the bungs , some use a chisel, put you can chip the bung and be lower than you want to be? I used a Chinese saw very fine and I lay it flat in the deck and cut off the head. Sometimes I reuse the cuts saves money. If you don't want to get saw marks on the teak. I use a small prices of thin flashing I use a hole punch and make a hole in it , then I slip it over the bug and cut the bung. Well hope this helps, signed Maverick.
