Application
The 745 BackSplash Dowel Jig Kit is everything needed to install the 740 BackSplash Dowels. (Holes 3/8" off the backside of both the back-splashes and counter-tops.) The dowel also had a 5 degree angle to help push the top back-splash into the wall. The two vacuum cups hold the hardened steel drill bushing in place for accurate drilling of the 5/16" holes.
The dowels are screwed into the counter-top and press forced into the top the back-splash. The steel ribs hold the back-splash in place until the silicone glue sets.
The 740 BackSplash Dowel provides a mechanical lock and when set into a bed of caulk they provide a mechanical lock and water resistant seal that stops the gaps that allow water in. (Per AWI Premium Grade installations)

- No second-trip required for caulking.
- Allows less experienced installers to do professional quality work.
