All you need to know about bungs
Bungs are funny little things. Well when I say little, I am mainly talking about the ones an average person deals with from day to day. They can be Huge! The ship building building and mining industries in particular need to use some monster bungs. However these are very specialized for certain tasks and will rarely be used for anything outside these tasks.
The definition of bung is basically anything that is used to plug a hole. The bath tub will have a bung at the bottom of it. Barrels generally have bungs in them. The hole they are used to plug are usually used to pour out liquid or some other pourable substance such as sand. Bungs can work in many ways but the 2 most common are friction bungs and screw in bungs. Friction bungs are things like bath plugs and believe it or not probably the most common bung of all the wine cork. Screw in Bungs are generally found in containers like oil barrels and boats.
Most of this information was gleaned from "bungs.org" bungs .
The materials bungs are generally made of are as follows. Wood, Rubber, Plastic and Metal.
Rubber bungs are generally used in test tubes and some food containers. Metal bungs are used in a myriad of industries home building, car industry, boating, mining and minerals and many many others. Wooden bungs are usually used in wood working and sometimes in building. A dowel can be considered a type of bung. Plastic bungs are starting to become the most common sort of bung. You can even get replacements for wine corks that are made out of a type of breathable plastic.
Bungs remain one of the worlds under rated instruments. They have been critical through out history but rarely celebrated.
About the Author
Traveling is my passion but I have other interest and one is celebrating the under achievers we find in society.
How do you open a bottle of wine with a dollar store cork screw?
It's just the screw and a handle and I do not have the strength to just pull the cork out. How do I get it open?
I've already screwed it in and pulled it out about 1cm
You just have to wiggle it back and forth and wrench on it til either the cork breaks or the screw does. If it does break then just take a knife and stab the cork down into the bottle. Kind of sucks for the wine, but it'll get it out of there
