Snowdon Timber Treated 4X2" Timber - 1.8M Length - 95mm Width - 45mm Thickness - 5 Pack

The timber measures approximately 45mm in thickness, 95mm in width, and 1800mm (1.8 meters) in length.

Yes, the pressure treatment makes it highly resistant to rot and decay, suitable for many applications involving ground contact, such as landscaping or sub-structures.

Yes, you can paint or stain the timber after it has dried sufficiently. Use exterior-grade products suitable for treated wood. Ensure the timber is not excessively wet before application.

Use galvanized or stainless steel fixings (screws, nails, bolts) to prevent corrosion, especially in outdoor applications. Pre-drilling is recommended.

Each pack contains 5 pieces of the 1.8m length treated timber.

Pressure treatment protects the timber from rot, fungal decay, and insect attack, significantly extending its lifespan, especially in exposed or ground-contact situations.

While durable, it's primarily designed for outdoor and structural use where rot resistance is key. For internal framing where moisture is not a concern, untreated timber might be considered, but this treated timber is perfectly safe and can be used if extra durability is desired.

Allow timber to acclimatize to its final environment for 24-48 hours before fixing. Minor warping can sometimes straighten as it is secured within a structure. For significant warping, consider selecting a straighter piece from the pack if available.

Pre-drill pilot holes, especially near the ends of the timber, to prevent splitting and ease fastener insertion. Use fasteners specifically designed for treated lumber, often galvanized or stainless steel.

This is a common characteristic of salt-based pressure treatments and is harmless. It can be brushed off or will weather away over time. It does not affect the structural integrity or protective qualities of the timber.

Always use appropriate safety gear, including a dust mask and eye protection, when cutting treated timber. Dispose of sawdust responsibly according to local regulations.
