These chromatized steel alignment dowels are designed specifically for model railway baseboards, providing a reliable and precise method of joining sections together. Each dowel fits into a standard 8 mm diameter hole, ensuring a snug and accurate fit every time boards are connected or separated.
Each pack contains 5 sets of dowels, giving you enough to align multiple baseboard joints in a single layout
Made from steel with a chromatized (chromate-treated) finish, these dowels offer good resistance to corrosion and surface wear. The treatment also helps prevent rust, which is particularly useful in environments where humidity may vary.
The primary function of these dowels is to maintain accurate alignment between adjacent baseboard sections. When sections of a layout need to be assembled and disassembled — for example, for transport or storage — these dowels ensure that track joints, scenic features, and wiring connectors all line up consistently each time
