22 x 100mm Sawn Pressure Treated (FSC Mix), per metre

Home grown product 100mm sawn tanalised

Most 22mm sawn timber carcassing is home grown. THis low-priced product is normally used for fencing slats or general structural work. The timber used is more suitable for rustic, fencing and cladding, non-structural applications. We stock 100mm sawn tanalised at 3.6 metre and 4.8 metre lengths making it useful for rustic fence pales, cladding and fencing applications. These boards are cut from fast growing trees in the forests of Scotland, Wales, Ireland and parts of Southern and northern England. Although it is referred to as 25mm carcassing the finished thickness is almost always 22mm.

Sawn and pressure treated timber

All of our 22mm timbers are pressure treated with Tanalith E, or similar, timber preservative. These timbers are intended for use above the ground layer but where the timber is still subjected to the risk of wetting. Therefore to improve the timber’s service life any cross-cuts must be treated with end-grain preservative treatment.

Timber appearance

The timber will be unspecified softwood, most usually Sitka spruce, and there may be colour variation between boards even from the same pack. Boards will ultimately fade to grey but if colour variation is a problem in the short term it is recommended that the boards are stained earlier in their service life. The boards are stored out of doors and at some times of the year the boards will be damp.

It is conceivable that some boards will have some wane on the board edges that is perfectly normal within the specification. If a more contemporary finish is required then we also stock planed Scandinavian redwood. These planed ex. 25mm x 100mm have a finished size of approximately 94mm x 20mm.

Pales and fencing materials

The 100mm widths are useful for cladding and fencing projects. They are stocked at a variety of lengths to allow them to be cross cut at popular lengths. As well as treating the cut ends with Ronsele end-protector it may be worth using a sawn length of timber as a capping board to provide more protection to the top of the boards. The 100mm width boards have always been popular for vertical "hit and miss" fences. Similarly they can be used horizontally too. Gates can also be made to match this style of fence.
