Textures
Western Red Cedar boards may be specified
in one of three surface finishes: rough; surfaced
one side, two edges (S1S2E); or surfaced four
sides (S4S).
Rough Boards
The rough sawn texture from either circular
or band saws is present on all four sides.
Surfaced One Side, Two Edges (S1S2E)
This versatile product is the most popular choice for trim boards. The surfacing process resulting in a rough sawn face and a smooth back provides uniform width and thickness tolerances. Typically graded from the rough face, it may in some instances be reversible to the smooth back.
Surfaced Four Sides (S4S or PAR, D4S)
The smooth surface on all four sides presents
a uniformly sized product with a quality appearance.
This surface finish is most commonly found
on Clear grades. |
