Spoon Shaped Shelf Supports 5 mm Bore Use
Spoon Shaped Shelf Supports 5 mm Bore from the Pro Value Series provide a defined rest area and pin size for cabinet and shelving work where a 5 mm bore is specified. The spoon shaped design creates a shelf rest area that is 3/8 inch long and 5/16 inch wide, giving the shelf a stable bearing surface along both depth and width. That defined rest size helps the shelf sit in a repeatable position, which supports consistent alignment across multiple holes in cabinets or closet systems. The 5 mm bore pin length of 3/8 inch matches typical 5 mm hole applications, so the support seats solidly in the panel while leaving enough pin exposed to hold the shelf. The black finish provides a dark appearance that visually blends with darker casework or hardware layouts in many woodworking projects.
Key Details Of These 5 mm Shelf Supports
- The spoon shaped design forms a 3/8 inch long and 5/16 inch wide shelf rest area, giving the shelf a defined footprint that helps resist movement along the cabinet side during everyday use.
- The 5 mm bore pin length of 3/8 inch fits panels drilled for 5 mm holes, so the support locates positively in the bore without excess play that could affect shelf positioning along a row of holes.
- The Pro Value Series designation ties this part to a consistent product family, which helps maintain the same geometry and appearance across multiple cabinets or closet sections in a job.
- The black finish gives the support a dark, low-contrast look against many painted or stained interiors, which keeps attention on the shelf contents instead of the hardware under the shelf.
- Availability in Brass, Black, and Nickel finishes allows matching the rest area appearance to other visible hardware, so hinge and pull finishes can align visually with the shelf supports.
Installation Fit And Bore Size Considerations
These Pro Value Series shelf supports are built around a 5 mm bore, so they are intended for panels drilled with 5 mm diameter holes. The 5 mm bore pin length of 3/8 inch is sized to seat into the panel while leaving the spoon shaped shelf rest projecting into the interior space. That geometry places the 3/8 inch long by 5/16 inch wide shelf rest area directly beneath the shelf, supporting the edge over a measured surface rather than a point. Because the same dimensions repeat from part to part, installers can plan hole rows and shelf layouts knowing the support depth and projection are consistent throughout the run.
How These Shelf Supports Work In Cabinets
Where Spoon Shaped Shelf Supports 5 mm Bore Apply
This Pro Value Series spoon shaped shelf support is used in cabinet, closet, and organization work where the panels are drilled with 5 mm bores and adjustable shelves are required. The 5 mm bore pin length of 3/8 inch allows the support to seat into standard 5 mm hole patterns, so it fits typical panel thicknesses used in many shelving systems. Once installed, the spoon shaped rest creates a 3/8 inch long, 5/16 inch wide bearing surface under the shelf edge, distributing the load across that pad area instead of concentrating it on a narrow point. The black finish lets these supports visually recede in darker interiors, which is useful in closets, garage cabinets, and other storage where a dark interior scheme is used.
Why The 3/8 Inch Rest And 5 mm Pin Matter
The combination of a 5 mm bore pin and a 3/8 inch length matters because it controls both how the support fits in the hole and how far the spoon shaped rest projects to hold the shelf. The 5 mm bore sets the hole size requirement, so drill patterns based on 5 mm bits will accept these supports without modification. The 3/8 inch pin length governs how deep the support engages in the panel, balancing grip in the bore with space for the spoon rest to sit fully under the shelf. At the same time, the 3/8 inch long and 5/16 inch wide rest defines a contact patch that helps keep the shelf edge aligned along the case side. Having the Pro Value Series BA1306BLK part number attached to these exact dimensions helps shops specify the same support wherever this geometry and black finish are needed.
