Hettich Rastex Connecting Fittings
Overview
Rastex is a range of cam-and-dowel connecting fittings from Hettich India, used to join panels in furniture such as cabinets, wardrobes, and modular units. The range includes 2-part and 3-part socket sets, cams, dowels, and cover caps designed for 15 mm and 18 mm panel thicknesses. Products are sold individually or as sets through the Hettich India Online store.
What It Does
Rastex fittings create secure, knock-down (KD) panel-to-panel connections without requiring permanent glue joints, allowing furniture to be assembled, disassembled, and reassembled. The system works by combining a socket (fitted into one panel) with a cam or dowel (fitted into the adjoining panel), which locks the two panels together when turned or pressed into place.
