Wine Corks 24x38mm Straight Natural - 100 pcs (Wijnkurken)

Straight natural wine corks in the standard 24 x 38 mm format — the cork a corking machine is built around. Unlike tapered stoppers that press in by hand, these cylindrical corks are compressed by the corker’s jaws and driven into the neck, where they expand to form the tight, full-contact seal that wine, mead and cider need for months of bottle ageing. One pack of 100 covers a serious bottling day with spares.

They fit every standard cork-finish wine bottle and work with twin-lever and bench corking machines alike. Soak briefly in warm water or a sulphite solution before corking, store the filled bottles on their side so the cork stays moist, and the seal keeps its grip for years.
