140 x 19 mm / I.S. Glued or Nailed 185 x 19 mm / I.S. Glued or Nailed Pinus Radiata subjected to an acetlyation modification process to obtain a high level of stability. NATURAL SATIN To order: gloss, matt, ultramatt, naturale and oiled. INSECT DECAY Accoya® wood is indigestible to a wide range of pests and an effective barrier to attack. For example, testing for termites according to AWPA E1 test standards yielded appearance ratings always ≥ 9 (Light Attack) versus control sample averages of 3.5 (worse than Heavy Attack). Weight loss averaged only 1.43% for Accoya® wood versus control sample averages of 32.06%. MACHINABILITY Processing does not affect the unique properties of Accoya® wood, as it is modified throughout and not leachable. It is relatively easy to process and can be compared to profiling a soft wood species. No special tools are required for cross cutting, ripping, planing, routing and drilling. Sanding before finishing is rarely required. GLUING Both load bearing and non-load bearing applications have been tested using adhesive systems related to laminating, finger jointing and frame corner joints. While good results can be achieved with most common adhesives, PU, epoxy and PRF adhesives give the best results. The results of gluing with polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and melamine urea formaldehyde (MUF) can vary greatly. Specific recommendations for your project are available upon request. FINISHING Most commonly used coating systems can be used on Accoya® wood. Testing has been performed with a full range of oilbased and water-based coating systems.
