White Oak Lumber

We have emerged as a reliable name for offering White Oak Lumber, which is greatly acknowledged for its decay resistance. The White Oak Lumber is majorly used for the construction of furniture, flooring, pallets, agricultural implements, railroad cars, truck floors, furniture, doors, and millwork. We ensure safe storage and packaging of White Oak Lumber so as to retain its finish and durability. White Oak SpecieWhite Oak Lumber comes chiefly from the South, South Atlantic, and Central States, including the southern Appalachian area. Principal species are white (Quercus alba), chestnut (Q. prinus), post (Q. stellata), overcup (Q. lyrata), swamp chestnut (Q. michauxii), bur (Q. macrocarpa), chinkapin (Q. muehlenbergii), and swamp white (Q. bicolor). The most important western oak species, Oregon white oak (Q. garryana), is a member of this group. The sapwood of the white oaks is nearly white and roughly 2 to 5 cm (1 to 2 in.) wide. The heartwood is generally grayish brown. Heartwood pores are usually plugged with tyloses, which tend to make the wood impenetrable to liquids. Consequently, most white oaks are suitable for tight cooperage, although many heartwood pores of chestnut oak lack tyloses. The wood of white oak is somewhat heavier than the wood of red oak. Its heartwood has good decay resistance. White oaks are usually cut into lumber, railroad crossties, cooperage, mine timbers, fence posts, veneer, fuel wood, and many other products. High-quality white oak is especially sought for tight cooperage. Details

Yellow PoplarYellow Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) is also known as poplar, tulip-poplar, and tulipwood. Sapwood from yellow-poplar is sometimes called white poplar or whitewood. Yellow-poplar grows from Connecticut and New York southward to Florida and westward to Missouri. Yellow-poplar sapwood is white and frequently several centimeters wide. The heartwood is yellowish brown, sometimes streaked with purple, green, black, blue, or red. These colorations do not affect the physical properties of the wood. The wood is generally straight grained and comparatively uniform in texture. Slow-grown wood is moderately light in weight and moderately low in bending strength, moderately soft, and moderately low in shock resistance. The wood has moderately high shrinkage when dried from a green condition, but it is not difficult to dry and is stable after drying. Yellow-Poplar Is Made Into Plywood For Paneling

White Ash Lumber

We have emerged as a credible name for offering high quality White Ash Lumber, which is widely used in cabinet work and paneling. The White Ash Lumber is one of the important species of the White Ash group and the American White Ash (Fraxinus americana) grows in the Eastern half of the united states. The White Ash Lumber can be availed at the market leading prices from us. The White Ash GroupIt includes White Ash, Green Ash (F. pennsylvanica), Blue Ash (F. quadrangulata), and Oregon ash (F. latifolia), out of which all except the Oregon Ash grow in the eastern half of the United States, and the Oregon ash grows along the Pacific Coast. The heartwood of the white ash group is brown, and the sapwood is light-colored or nearly white. Second-growth trees are particularly sought after because of the inherent qualities of the wood from these trees: it is heavy, strong, hard, and stiff, and it has high resistance to shock. Oregon ash has somewhat lower strength properties than American white ash, but it is used for similar purposes on the West Coast. American white ash (F. americana) and green ash (F. pennsylvanica) that grow in southern river bottoms, especially in areas frequently flooded for long periods, produce buttresses that contain relatively lightweight and brash wood. American White Ash Lumber Is Used In
