C24 Timber 7×2 (47 x 175mm) 4.8m

Our C24 Treated Timber 7″ x 2″ (47 x 175mm) 4.8m is a high-performance, structural-grade softwood, meticulously prepared for demanding construction projects. This kiln-dried and pressure-treated timber offers exceptional strength and longevity, making it the ideal choice for a wide array of structural applications.

Sourced from sustainably managed forests, this C24 graded timber ensures reliability and compliance with stringent UK building standards. Its robust nature and protective treatment provide peace of mind for both internal and external above-ground use, resisting fungal decay and insect infestation.

Key Features and Specifications

• Dimensions: Nominal 47mm x 175mm (7″ x 2″), supplied in 4.8m lengths. Actual finished size may be slightly less due to regularisation (e.g., approximately 45mm x 170mm).
• Strength Grade: C24 strength-graded, conforming to BS EN 14081 / EN 338, offering superior load-bearing capacity compared to C16 timber.
• Treatment: UC2 pressure-treated with Tanalith E (or similar) to BS EN 599, providing effective protection against fungal decay and insect attack.
• Material: Kiln-dried, slow-grown softwood (typically Scandinavian whitewood or redwood) for enhanced stability, reduced warping, and improved straightness.
• Finish: Regularised (planed all round) with eased (rounded) corners for consistent dimensions and safer, more comfortable handling on site.
• Sourcing: Responsibly sourced, often FSC certified, ensuring environmental sustainability.
• Durability: Suitable for a variety of internal and external applications where timber is not in direct ground contact. All cut ends should be re-sealed with a proprietary end-grain preservative.

Applications

This versatile 47 x 175mm C24 treated timber is engineered for a broad spectrum of structural and general building applications. It is commonly used for:

• Floor Joists: Providing robust support for flooring systems in residential and commercial builds.
• Roof Rafters: Forming the essential framework for pitched roofs.
• Wall Studs: Constructing strong and stable timber frames for internal and external walls.
• Decking Subframes: Creating durable and long-lasting bases for outdoor decking areas.
• General Carcassing: Ideal for other demanding structural work where high strength and stability are paramount.
