Product Overview
Sawn treated timber, C16/C24 graded, featuring a 47mm depth, 100mm width, and 4.8m length. This structural softwood is kiln-dried to reduce moisture content and improve stability during installation. The regularised profile provides consistent dimensions and eased edges for safe handling across various building projects.
Designed for load-bearing applications, this timber offers high density and strength suitable for framing, studwork, and structural partitioning. The pressure treatment process forces preservatives deep into the wood fibres to protect against fungal decay and wood-boring insects over the product's lifespan.
The extended long length of this piece makes it ideal for primary floor joists and long-reach structural supports, minimising offcut waste. The material measures 47mm x 100mm with a length of 4.8m.
Features & Benefits
- Strength grading (C16/C24): C16 for standard domestic builds; C24 for higher loads and reduced deflection.
- Kiln-dried stability: Reduced moisture content minimises the risk of splitting, warping, or dimensional movement.
- Regularised profile: Machine-finished surfaces and eased edges provide uniform dimensions and comfortable manual handling.
- Pressure treatment: Deep-penetrating preservative safeguards the timber against fungal decay and wood-boring insects.
- Length suitability: The 4.8m length is optimised for extensive structural bridging and long-reach applications, reducing the need for on-site cutting.
Applications
- Internal stud walls: Forms the vertical framework for non-load-bearing and load-bearing partitions.
- Floor joists: Provides structural support for localised flooring spans and reinforcements.
- Roof construction: Suitable for rafters, structural bracing, and ceiling joist assemblies.
- Extended framing: Ideal for extensive primary floor supports and uninterrupted roof assemblies over extended long distances.
Installation Guidance
- Moisture checking: Allow the timber to acclimatise to the environment prior to installation to prevent excessive movement.
- Cutting and sealing: Apply an appropriate end-grain preservative to any cross-cuts, notches, or boreholes to maintain protection.
- Fixing selection: Use corrosion-resistant nails, screws, or structural brackets to secure the timber firmly in place.
- Load distribution: Ensure appropriate spacing between framing components according to structural calculations.
Compliance & Performance
- Grading standard: Kiln-dried and strength graded to C24 in accordance with BS EN 14081-1.
- Treatment specification: Pressure-treated using a water-based preservative system.
- Moisture content: Kiln-dried to a target moisture content of 20% or less prior to treatment.
- Important note: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and a dust mask, when cutting or handling treated timber.
- Natural variation: Colour and surface appearance vary naturally and by treatment batch.
- Moisture disclaimer: Treated Timber is often stored outside and if it has recently been raining then the timber may arrive wet; this does not affect the integrity of the timber.

How delivery works
We work with a nationwide network of trusted suppliers. Items in your basket may be supplied by different suppliers and delivered separately. Where this applies, you will see delivery charges shown at checkout for each part of your order. We always aim to group products from the same supplier to keep delivery costs as low as possible.
Delivery areas
Delivery charges apply to mainland UK, excluding: AB, CA, CF, DD, DG, EH, EX, FK, KA, KW, KY, IV, LA, LD, LL, ML, NP, PA, PH, PL, SA, SY, TR, TQ and TD.
If your address is in one of these areas, we will contact you before processing your order to confirm any additional costs. We do not currently offer delivery outside the UK mainland.
What to expect on delivery day
- Deliveries are typically kerbside.
- Please ensure someone is on-site to accept delivery. For heavier items, help with offloading may be required.
- Many building materials arrive on large vehicles. If access is restricted, a specialist vehicle such as a HIAB may be required and could incur an additional charge.
Why delivery can cost more than typical parcel delivery
Building materials often travel on larger vehicles and usually carry fewer drops per run than parcel networks. That is why delivery charges can be higher than standard e-commerce shipping.
Returns
Returns depend on what you have bought and whether there is anything wrong with it. For full details on eligibility, timeframes, and exclusions, please see our full policy.
