Questions & Answers about Tongue Depressors:
2012-04-20A shopper asked: How thick are they?
+Expand Answers
2012-04-26DAVID TURI: They are 0.063" +/- thick.
2012-04-26STEVEN SZARAWARSKI: These are 0.062 inches thick... typical thickness for the ones I've used for years.
2012-04-27SUSAN KLINE: My tongue depressors are about 3/32" thick. I use them for mixing small cans of paint, varnish, or 2 part epoxy. They also function well as a spatula for applying things such as wood dough or faring compound. I find them to be strong enough to do the above things. If you need stronger ones for some reason, you could glue two together to double their thickness.

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Tongue Depressors:
Suprised to see these were junior sized, not in the advertising. Not quite as small as popsicle sticks. Wear gloves when mixing to keep hands clean as they are shorter than the last box I got a couple years ago. Still, the only outlet for wooden tongue depressors I have found.

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Tongue Depressors:
I worked in a medical office and was always able to get the adult sized tongue depressors - they are the perfect size for making fillets. Well, I retired and had to find another source. The tongue depressors sold at JD are pediatric sized. They are okay for mixing epoxy and scraping out containers, but much too small to do any fillet work with.

Comments about Jamestown Distributors Tongue Depressors:
A box of stir sticks are always in my shop. I don't have time to hunt around for scraps of wood when I'm painting or working with epoxy. A box of these things are there when needed, always clean and strong enuff to the job. Hard to find anywhere else.
