Panel Buddies Rectangular Inserts for Cabinets Rubber Black - 1000 Each

Panel Buddies Rectangular Inserts For Stable Panels

Panel Buddies rectangular inserts give cabinet panels a dedicated support point along the length of the spacer, so the panel stays properly backed while still free to move. Each spacer is 1/4 inch by 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch long, creating a defined bearing surface that fits typical cabinet layouts. These spacers are designed for use in standard 1/4 inch grooves, so they align with common cabinet panel groove dimensions and help keep the panel centered within the frame. The rubber material has no oil or silicones, so it does not disrupt later finishing steps on surrounding wood surfaces. Their rectangular shape prevents them from rolling around the shop when dropped, which keeps parts close at hand and saves time during production work.

Key Panel Buddies Details For Cabinet Work

• Supports the panel over the length of the spacer, so the panel has continuous backing at that point and is less prone to localized rattling in the groove.
• Allows maximum expansion and contraction without putting undue pressure on the glue joints, so seasonal movement happens in the groove instead of stressing the frame joints.
• Spacers are 1/4 inch by 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch long, so they register cleanly in common cabinet grooves while providing a consistent stand-off distance.
• For use in standard 1/4 inch grooves, so they match typical cabinet construction practices and fit directly into the groove behind the panel.
• No oil or silicones to disrupt finishing, so nearby wood surfaces can be finished without contamination that might interfere with stain or topcoats.
• Rectangular shape ensures they will not roll around the shop if they get dropped, so parts stay put and are quicker to retrieve during assembly.

Panel Spacer Fit And Cabinet Groove Application

The 1/4 inch by 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch size of these panel spacers works with standard 1/4 inch cabinet grooves, so the spacer seats directly in the groove and contacts the panel edge. Because the spacer supports the panel over its length, it creates a clear bearing point that holds the panel in position while still leaving room for movement along the groove. The ability to allow maximum expansion and contraction without putting undue pressure on glue joints keeps movement stresses inside the groove area instead of at the frame corners. With no oil or silicones present, these spacers sit in contact with unfinished wood during assembly without interfering with later finishing stages.

Using Panel Buddies Spacers In Cabinet Builds

Where These Panel Buddies Rectangular Inserts Are Used

These Panel Buddies rectangular inserts are used as panel spacers in cabinet construction where a panel sits in a standard 1/4 inch groove. The spacers are 1/4 inch by 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch long, so they align with the width of a standard 1/4 inch groove and provide a defined support point along that groove. By supporting the panel over the length of the spacer, they help keep the panel edge from drifting away from the groove bottom at that location. Their rubber construction, combined with a design that allows maximum expansion and contraction, lets the panel move with changing conditions while still riding on the spacer surface. The rectangular shape also keeps each piece from rolling if it drops onto the shop floor, so they stay close to the bench or machine area.

Why These Panel Spacers Improve Panel Movement Control

These Panel Buddies panel spacers are specifically intended for use in standard 1/4 inch grooves, which means they work with common rail-and-stile cabinet door or panel frames sized for 1/4 inch material. Because they support the panel over their full length, they maintain positive contact between the panel edge and the spacer, helping reduce panel chatter where it sits in the groove. Their ability to allow maximum expansion and contraction without putting undue pressure on glue joints keeps frame joinery from carrying excess load as the panel moves. The rubber material has no oil or silicones, so it stays neutral next to bare wood, which is important when the cabinet will be stained or topcoated. The rectangular shape keeps the parts from rolling around the shop, so handling and staging during repetitive cabinet production stay more controlled.
