Was asbestos used in old wood cabinets?

I have some late 1980s Aristokraft cabinets in my kitchen, and I want to replace them myself. Before I start tearing them out, was asbestos ever used in wooden kitchen cabinets?

No.Asbestos was used as pipe insulation and fireproofing mainly,not in wood cabinets. Besides, it's use was discontinued before the 80s.

not that I ever heard of. If you are careful you shouldn't get much dust of any kind either way.

as fare as I know, no.
