Starborn Industries Introduces New SMART-BIT® PRO PLUG® System for

Wood

Precisely Engineered System Makes Plugging Simple & Easy, While Delivering Superior Results for
Decking, Hardwood Flooring & Woodworking Applications

Edison, NJ, December 15, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Starborn Industries, Inc., a leading manufacturer of
fasteners and related products for the building industry, has introduced the new SMART-BIT® PRO
PLUG® System to greatly simplify and enhance the beauty of wood plug installations performed within
decking, wide plank flooring and woodworking projects. The system includes the PRO PLUG Tool for
Wood, the PRO-Plug Glue Nozzle and PRO PLUG Plug & Fastener Kit in different wood species and
fastener sizes as well as the PRO-Plug Glue Nozzle, which combine to quickly and consistently create
perfectly crafted plugs in less than half the time of other plugging methods.

“Plugging has been used in building and woodworking for hundreds of years to cover and protect the
heads of screws as well as define serious craftsmanship,” says Paul Gertner, President of Starborn
Industries. “However, the process can be time-consuming and tedious. The new SMART-BIT PRO
PLUG System was specifically developed to make plugging quicker and easier. It was also engineered by
our research team to perfectly install plugs in more than 20 species of decking, flooring and wood, while
delivering superior results, plug after plug. In timed trials, it also reduced the time to plug by more than
half.”

The PRO PLUG™ System was introduced by Starborn Industries as an ideal solution for plank floor
installers and deck builders desiring to repair squeaky floors or combine the proven strength of face
screwing with the aesthetics of hidden side-clip systems. Sold separately, the system includes the:
--PRO PLUG Tool for Wood, which creates a screw hole and countersink that is perfectly matched to the
PRO PLUG fasteners and plugs
--PRO PLUG Plug & Fastener Kit, which comes complete with wood plugs, screws, driver bit(s) and the
company's patent pending PRO PLUG Glue Nozzle that coats the side of the hole where the glue is
needed

The system is also available in many popular wood species for decking, flooring and woodworking
including Ipe, Meranti, Cambara, Red Oak, Maple and Walnut. Plug & Fastener Kits are sold in
quantities of 100, 350 and 1,050 pieces (each of which includes a nozzle) with the tool sold separately.
