47mm x 150mm (6 x 2) - Sawn Kiln Dried & Regularised C24 Graded Timber

47mm x 150mm (6 x 2) Sawn Kiln Dried & Regularised C24 Graded Timber is a high-strength structural softwood commonly used where longer spans and heavier loads are required. Strength graded to C24, this timber offers known, reliable structural performance for demanding construction projects.

Kiln dried to a moisture content of 20% or less, this C24 carcassing timber provides improved stability, reduced movement, and better straightness compared to unseasoned timber. Regularisation (planed all round) ensures consistent sizing, typically finishing at approximately 45mm x 145mm, with eased edges for safer handling and easier installation.

This 6 x 2 C24 timber is widely used for floor joists, roof rafters, lintels, studwork in load-bearing walls, decking subframes, and general structural framing, particularly where C16 timber may not be sufficient. The increased depth makes it especially suitable for longer spans in floors and roofs.

C24 timber is typically sourced from slower-grown regions, resulting in a tighter grain structure and improved strength. Compared to C16, C24 is roughly 50% stronger, making it the preferred choice for structural applications where performance matters.
