What it does
- Replacement shelf pegs for IKEA BILLY bookshelves
- Tight fit holds heavier shelves without flexing
- Optional screw holes for secure mounting
- Saves a bookshelf when the original pegs are lost
- Print a handful and stash spares for the next move
You move the bookshelf and the missing pegs are not stopping the project anymore. This replacement peg fits the IKEA BILLY bookshelf, with a tighter fit than the original to maximize strength under heavier loads.
The piece may need to be hammered into the hole the first time for the snug fit; that is the trade for stronger holding power. Optional screw holes let you secure the peg permanently if you want it to never come out again.
Use it for BILLY shelves, similar IKEA bookcases, and shelves that took a beating in the last move.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
