Treated Structural Timber – 47 mm × 200 mm (approx. 8″ × 2″), 5.4 m
This 47 × 200 mm structural softwood timber, graded C24 and supplied in a 5.4 m length, is kiln-dried, pressure-treated, and regularised with planed faces and eased edges to deliver strength, stability, and long-lasting performance. The wide 8″ × 2″ profile provides excellent load-bearing capacity and rigidity, making it suitable for heavy-duty structural work including floor joists, roof rafters, beams, support posts, and other load-bearing framing. Preservative treatment enhances durability and offers protection against rot, fungal decay, and insect attack, ensuring reliable performance when used above ground or in covered external environments. The smooth, planed finish and consistent sizing make this timber easy to handle, cut, and install — perfect for both professional construction and DIY jobs.
