Wooden Water Butt Bungs – 2″ (51 mm) Tapered Barrel Sealing Plugs
Tapered wooden water butt bungs — precision‑turned plugs for sealing barrel shive holes securely.
High‑quality wooden water butt bungs designed to seal the shive hole — the larger side opening — on your wooden barrels. These precision‑turned tapered plugs are ideal for repurposing old barrels (like whiskey, wine or spirit casks) into rainwater collection systems, garden water butts or decorative barrel displays.
Each bung is manufactured from locally sourced, FSC‑certified beech wood and features a slight taper to ensure a secure, snug fit in the barrel hole, helping prevent leaks and making old barrels water‑tight when used for rainwater harvesting or garden watering setups.
These bungs are perfect when you want to:
- Seal the shive hole on refurbished barrels
- Convert barrels into functional water butts
- Create rustic garden water systems
- Use as a natural, traditional plug in woodworking and barrel projects
Size: 2″ (51 mm) diameter with tapered profile for an effective and secure seal.
Whether you’re transforming barrel staves into a rainwater butt or adding a finishing touch to a garden water feature, these wooden bungs offer a durable, natural and traditional solution for long‑lasting performance.
