Redwood PSE 32mm x 215mm is a planed square edge softwood board supplied in 4200mm lengths, machined in-house at our Bridgend yard. Smooth-faced and sharp-edged straight from the pack, it suits a wide range of interior joinery and carpentry applications where a clean, accurate finish is needed.
Specifications
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | European Redwood (Pinus sylvestris) |
| Finish | Planed Square Edge (PSE) - smooth face, square arrises |
| Nominal Size | 38mm x 225mm (nominal) |
| Finished Size | 32mm x 215mm (approx.) |
| Length | 4200mm |
| Profile | Square edge, straight |
| Use Class | Internal use or dry protected environments |
What it's used for
- Window boards and window sill linings in new-build or renovation projects
- Stair components including treads, risers and spandrel infill panels
- Shelving, alcove units and fitted furniture carcassing
- Bespoke interior joinery such as panelling, cabinet frames and worktop supports
Fitting and handling
Allow the timber to acclimatise in the installation environment for at least 48 hours before fixing, particularly in centrally heated rooms where the air is dry. Fix using screws or lost-head nails and pre-drill near ends to avoid splitting, given the board width. For a lasting finish, apply a primer coat before painting, or a penetrating oil or wood stain if a natural appearance is preferred - redwood accepts most standard interior finishes well.
FAQ
What is the actual finished size of this redwood PSE board?
The finished size after planing is approximately 32mm thick by 215mm wide. The nominal or sawn size is larger - typically quoted as 38mm x 225mm - but material is removed during machining, so always work from the finished dimensions when planning your project.
Is this board suitable for stair treads?
Yes, the 32mm thickness makes this board a practical choice for stair treads on domestic stair flights. It is solid timber, not laminated, so it machines, sands and finishes cleanly. Check your Building Regulations for minimum tread depth and nosing requirements before cutting to size.
Can I use this redwood PSE board outdoors?
This board is intended for internal use or dry, protected environments only. It is not pressure-treated and is not suitable for exterior applications where it will be exposed to rain or ground contact. For outdoor use, consider a treated or naturally durable species instead.
