American White Oak (Quercus alba) is a popular temperate hardwood.
Due to the sapwood being non-durable (susceptible to bio-degradation and bio-deterioration), the species is unsuitable for external use and is predominantly used for internal joinery and cabinet/furniture making.
We stock a large selection of pre-machined (smooth, not rough sawn) boards of this species.
In accordance with the American Hardwood Grading Rules, Sapwood and Knots are NOT defects and therefore should be expected.
