Treated Structural Timber – 47 mm × 175 mm (approx. 7″ × 2″), 6.0 m
This 47 × 175 mm structural softwood timber, graded C24 and supplied in a 6.0 m length, is kiln-dried, pressure-treated, and regularised (planed with eased edges) to ensure strength, stability, and long-term durability. Its substantial 7″ × 2″ profile and extended length provide excellent load-bearing capacity and rigidity, making it ideal for heavy-duty structural work such as floor joists, roof rafters, beams, decking supports, and load-bearing frameworks. The preservative treatment protects the timber from rot, fungal decay, and insect damage, ensuring dependable performance when used above ground or in covered outdoor constructions. The planed, smooth finish and consistent sizing make handling, cutting, and installation easier and more precise — suitable for both professional and DIY applications.
