Prime-line Products U 10170 Brass Shelf Support 5mm 8 Pack

Product Description

The PRIME-LINE PRODUCTS U 10170 is a 5mm brass metal shelf support peg designed to hold shelving panels in place within cabinet and shelving unit frameworks. Each peg features a metal screw slot that allows the shelf to be fastened directly to the support, making it well suited for heavily loaded shelves where a standard friction-fit peg would not provide adequate retention. These supports are installed by woodworkers, cabinet installers, and general contractors working on residential and light commercial millwork and furniture projects.

This shelf support is used in standard 5mm peg-hole shelving systems found in cabinets, bookcases, entertainment centers, and similar furniture. The screw-slot design adds mechanical retention, making it a preferred choice when shelves carry significant weight or when shelf movement must be prevented. Each pack contains 8 pegs, providing enough hardware for a single shelving unit or multiple shelf positions.

Key Features

• Metal screw slot allows shelf to be mechanically fastened to the peg for added stability
• 5mm peg diameter fits standard 5mm shelf-pin holes
• Brass construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• Suitable for heavily loaded shelf applications
• 8 pegs included per pack

Compatibility

Designed for use in shelving and cabinet systems with standard 5mm shelf-pin holes where a fastening-style support peg is required.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond a screwdriver to fasten the shelf to the peg once the support is seated in the hole. Ensure all peg holes are properly aligned and free of debris before inserting supports. Confirm the shelf panel pre-drilled hole or slot lines up with the screw slot before securing. Use all support pegs at each shelf level to distribute load evenly.
