8/4 Red Oak Lumber – 5-Pack | Kiln-Dried Hardwood | S2S
Red Oak is the most widely used domestic hardwood in North America, and 8/4 Red Oak with its bold open grain, warm reddish-tan tones, and reliable strength make it one of the most capable and accessible building materials available. With a Janka hardness rating of ~1,290 lbf, it offers true hardwood durability at one of the most competitive price points of any species at this thickness.
