About
Our 2 Ex 32x175mm Green Treated Sawn Featheredge Cladding is a robust, traditional timber weatherboarding solution, ideal for external walls on barns, stables, workshops, garages, sheds, agricultural buildings and other timber structures. Manufactured from softwood, these boards feature a distinctive tapered profile and a rough-sawn surface, creating an attractive, rustic finish suited to both traditional and contemporary buildings.
Each board is produced by diagonally cutting a nominal 32x175mm timber section into two tapered featheredge boards. This typically creates a finished thickness of approximately 24mm at the thick edge, reducing to around 6mm at the thin edge. The heavier section provides a more substantial alternative to smaller featheredge cladding, making it particularly suitable for larger buildings and applications where a pronounced overlapping weatherboard appearance is desired.
The timber is pressure treated with a green preservative to help protect against fungal decay and wood-boring insects, improving durability when correctly specified and installed in suitable external applications. The natural grain, knots and textured sawn finish remain visible, giving each board its own individual character. Over time, the green treatment colour will gradually weather as the timber is exposed to sunlight and the elements.
Designed primarily for horizontal installation, featheredge boards overlap to help shed rainwater away from the building. They should be secured to suitable timber battens or framework using corrosion-resistant fixings, with appropriate ventilation, drainage and overlap to support long-term performance.
Actual finished dimensions, thickness taper, machining profiles, effective cover widths and timber appearance may vary between manufacturers and suppliers. If you need to match existing timber cladding, please contact us before ordering to confirm compatibility.
