Today I reach for a bowl and the plastic piece that holds the shelf in the cabinet broke. Luckily the shelf is still there and the dishes did not fall.  

I took everything off the shelf and found a new home for most everything.

Back when I got the shelves I looked for metal pieces but did not find any.

The cabinets have a hole that this piece goes into.

Shelf pegs, or shelf pins, depending on where you look.  There are a few kinds, the most common being the ones with the flat spot for the shelf.

Take one if you go someplace to look, there are several sizes. or look closely at pictures and measurements online.

Thank you both!  I now see that they have several choices and sizes.

I really would like the metal ones to be the right size.
 
A berm makes a great wind break. And we all like to break wind once in a while. Like this tiny ad:
