Product Overview

Sawn pressure-treated softwood batten, measuring 4800mm in length with a 25mm x 50mm (1" x 2") section. 

Broad profile provides a stable fixing surface for larger-scale applications in general construction, fencing trims, and cladding support.

Features & Benefits

  • Pressure treatment: Helps extend service life in outdoor or damp conditions.
  • Square-cut edges: Consistent profile for tight fixing and alignment.
  • Natural timber appearance: Suitable for both construction and landscaping contexts.
  • Workable softwood: Easy to cut, drill, and fix using standard tools.
  • Length 4800mm: Reduces the number of joints in extended runs.
  • Section 25mm x 50mm (1" x 2"): Broad profile provides a stable fixing surface for versatile use.


Please Note: Colour and finish may vary from green to brown depending on the treatment process. This product is ungraded and not intended for structural load-bearing applications.

Applications

  • Medium-duty framing support: Can be used with sheet materials such as plywood, plasterboard, and cladding where battens create a fixing base.
  • Service gaps in construction: Forms cavities for insulation, cabling, and pipework in larger builds.
  • Fencing trims and detailing: Broad enough for trims, capping, and light framing in fencing projects.
  • DIY and interiors: Practical for shelving, boxing-in, and general repair work.

Installation Guidance

  • Set out battens evenly: Ensures consistent fixing points and prevents material warping.
  • Use galvanised or stainless fixings: Protects against corrosion and prolongs service life outdoors.
  • Maintain ventilation gaps: Supports insulation performance and prevents trapped moisture behind cladding or sheet materials.

Compliance & Performance

  • Preservative treatment: Pressure treated for durability and resistance to fungal decay and insect attack.
  • Service conditions: Intended for use above ground, where timber may be subject to occasional moisture but not constant wetting or ground contact.
