Izzi Skirt Washers make it easy to attach table tops to table bases. Simply drill a 9/16” hole with a forstner bit centered at 3/16” from the edge of the skirt. Attach the Izzi Skirt Washer with a #8 flat head screw (not included). Then use a #8 Pan head screw through the slotted portion to secure the table top. The 5/8” long slot allows the tabletop to expand and contract with seasonal moisture changes eliminating the chance of splitting due to cross grain conflict between the top and base. Izzi Skirt Washers are a perfect solution for attaching a plank to any type of furniture including tables and cabinetry.

How does the skirt washer allow for wood movement?

The 5/8" long slot lets the tabletop expand and contract with seasonal moisture changes, eliminating the chance of splitting due to cross-grain conflict between the top and base.

What screws do I need to install them?

Use a #8 flat head screw to attach the washer and a #8 pan head screw through the slotted portion to secure the table top. The screws are not included.

What are Izzy Skirt Washers used for?

They make it easy to attach table tops to table bases, and they work for attaching a plank to any type of furniture, including tables and cabinetry. See related cabinet hardware.

Where on the skirt should the washer be positioned?

The mounting hole should be centered 3/16" from the edge of the skirt so the washer sits correctly against the underside of the top.

Why is wood movement a concern for tabletops?

Solid-wood tops expand and contract across the grain with humidity. Fixing them rigidly to a base can cause splitting, which the slotted skirt washer prevents by allowing the top to move.

Are the screws included?

No. The #8 flat head and #8 pan head screws are not included, so plan to supply your own fasteners. Browse hardware for compatible screws.
