What is 25mm x 38mm Sawn Treated Timber Batten (1.5" x 1") 4.8m?
25mm x 38mm x 4.8m sawn treated batten is a practical, durable, and cost-effective timber solution for a multitude of non-structural and light-duty framing, spacing, and fixing applications. It is primarily used to create level surfaces for the installation of plywood, drywall, and other sheet materials.
Additionally, these ungraded battens are instrumental in creating gaps for insulation between different construction elements, enhancing both functionality and energy efficiency.
These battens benefit from a pressure treatment process that significantly enhances their durability, suiting them to a variety of outdoor and high-moisture applications. Pressure treatment involves impregnating the timber with preservatives under high pressure, forcing them deep into the wood fibres. This process ensures that the battens are protected against the common threats that affect timber in outdoor environments, such as rot, decay, and wood-boring insects like termites.
Applications
- Landscaping: Fencing, retaining walls, raised garden beds, and borders.
- Agricultural Use: Farm fencing, animal enclosures, and stable construction.
- Construction: Framing and general construction.
- DIY Projects: Furniture making, shelving, and small-scale home renovations.
Benefits
- Pressure treatment ensures deeper penetration of preservatives, extending lifespan.
- Inherent durability, moisture resistance, and protection against pests.
- Contributes to the longevity of constructions.
Material, Finish, and Treatment
- Material: Manufactured from resilient softwood, commonly Spruce or Pine, selected for its workability and general utility.
- Sawn Finish: The timber has a standard sawn finish, meaning it is not planed smooth. This provides a slightly rougher texture suitable for applications where a decorative finish is not paramount and where a good key for fixings or adhesives can be beneficial.
- Comprehensive Pressure Treatment: Each batten undergoes an industrial pressure treatment process. This involves impregnating the timber deep into its cellular structure with high-quality wood preservatives (often copper-based, like Tanalith E).
