47mm x 50mm Sawn Treated Timber (2″ x 2″) 3m

Treated Sawn Timber – 47 mm × 50 mm (2″ x 2″), 3 m

This 47 × 50 mm (nominal 2″ × 2″) treated softwood timber, at 3 m length, is pressure-treated and kiln-dried to offer longevity and enhanced resistance to rot, fungal attack, and insect damage. The timber is regularised — planed smooth with eased edges — giving consistent dimensions and making it easier to handle, cut, and fix. Its compact size and treated nature make it particularly suited for both indoor and outdoor light-duty applications where durability and moisture resistance are beneficial. The timber is versatile and suitable for a variety of uses including light framing, garden projects, fencing supports, or small structural tasks.

Usage & Handling Advice:

• Use exterior-rated fixings (screws or galvanised nails) when fixing outdoors to prevent corrosion.

• Seal or paint cut ends to maintain preservative protection after cutting.

• Pre-drill for screws to avoid splitting on narrow timber sections.

• Store flat and dry before use to keep timber straight and stable.
