2 X 8 X 24 FT #1 & 2 KD DOUGLAS FIR S4S

Douglas Fir 2x8 lumber is a high quality softwood known for its exceptional strength to weight ratio, outstanding stiffness, and superior nail holding capability. Featuring a light reddish brown heartwood with a distinct yellowish white sapwood, it showcases a prominent straight grain and a moderately coarse texture. When working with this lumber, you will notice a mild, pleasant, resinous scent. While its dense growth rings provide good durability, untreated Douglas Fir has moderate natural resistance to decay and insects, making exterior applications best suited for applications with proper finishes or treatments. It is ideal for demanding structural applications like framing, headers, and joists.
