Features and benefits

Applications for 7×2 Treated Timber
Carcassing timber is a kiln-dried, treated, and structurally graded softwood that is widely used in construction projects requiring a grading stamp. It is versatile enough for use both indoors and outdoors, making it a popular choice for floor joists, roof joists, and timber frame construction.

Whether for structural or general joinery work, treated timber is easy to cut to size, provided the correct power tools are used along with appropriate safety equipment, such as eye protection and a respirator.

Common uses for carcassing timber include:

– Stud wall frameworks
– Joists for roofs, floors, and decking
– Structural joinery and general building applications
– Timber frame construction

7×2 Treated Timber Specifications
Pressure-treated timber, often referred to as tanalised timber due to the Tanalith E preservative used in the process, offers numerous benefits. Its resistance to moisture ensures that even the unpredictable British weather won’t compromise its structural integrity.

Key specifications include:
– Graded to C24 standard, providing excellent tensile strength
– Regularised with eased edges for smoother handling
– Treated with Tanalith E to protect against rot and moisture damage
– Kiln-dried for increased stability and straightness
– High-density construction for added durability
– Cost-effective, offering a balance between competitive pricing and guaranteed quality

7×2 Timber Sizing Explained
With a nominal size of 47mmx175mm, 7×2 timber actually has a finished size of 45mmx170mm, but this difference is so negligible that it is commonly just referred to as 47×175, or 7×2.

Please Note: The finished size of our carcassing timber may vary slightly from the nominal dimensions. You can expect to receive timber that is finished with a thickness 2mm less and a width 5mm less than the nominal measurements stated. Colour and finish are representative only and may vary slightly as this is a natural product.
