Frequently Asked Questions
What oak products does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood carries red oak and white oak hardwood lumber, oak hardwood plywood, and oak flooring. Both species are available in select and common grades for furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and interior millwork. Oak is the most widely used hardwood in North American furniture and flooring manufacturing.
What is the difference between red oak and white oak?
Red oak has an open grain with pinkish-red tones and a Janka hardness of approximately 1290. White oak has a similar grain structure with tan-brown tones, a Janka hardness of approximately 1360, and contains tyloses in the vessel pores that make it waterproof — the reason white oak is used for wine barrels and boat building. White oak is more durable outdoors and more rot-resistant than red oak. For interior furniture and cabinetry, both perform similarly.
Is oak prone to blotching when stained?
Oak stains more consistently than blotch-prone species like pine, birch, or maple due to its open grain structure. The open pores absorb stain evenly, making oak a reliable choice for stained furniture and cabinetry. The prominent ray fleck visible in quartersawn oak can show stain colour variation, which is generally considered an attractive characteristic of the species.
What is quartersawn oak and why is it prized?
Quartersawn oak is cut so that the growth rings run roughly perpendicular to the face of the board. This orientation exposes the medullary rays of the oak, producing a distinctive ray fleck or wavy shimmer pattern on the face of the board. Quartersawn oak is also more dimensionally stable than flat-sawn oak and is used in craftsman and arts-and-crafts furniture and flooring for its distinctive figure.
What dimensions of oak lumber does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood carries red and white oak in standard dimensional thicknesses including 4/4 and 8/4, with widths varying by current stock. Oak hardwood plywood is available in standard 4x8 panels. Contact your local Windsor Plywood branch to confirm current availability of the specific species, grade, and dimensions required for your project.
