Product Description

Red oak plywood is characterized by a sharp contrast between coarse early wood and smooth late wood. The heartwood color is light tan to pinkish to reddish brown to dark tan or khaki.

The Veneer Core is made with alternating veneer inner plies. In North America, the innerply species are usually softwood (fir or pine) on the west coast and poplar or aspen on the east coast.

Veneer core panels are relatively light in comparison with composite panels, typically weighing about 70 lbs. per 3/4″ panel. Veneer core offers great strength and stability with better spanning properties than either particle board or medium density fiberboard (MDF). Veneer core does have a wider variance in thickness in comparison with highly engineered PBC or MDF.4 x 8 Red Oak plywood panelPlain slice: Cutting logs in half lengthwise, then slicing the halves lengthwise produces a veneer with a unique grain patternRotary cut back: Peeling the entire log produces a continuous ribbon of veneerBookmatched: Every other leaf or component of veneer from a given log is turned over to produce a mirror image at the splice joint, much like turning the pages of a book, to produce an aesthetically appealing look across the faceNo added formaldehyde (NAF)
