The wood is medium density for a tropical hardwood and mills nicely. Using sharp cutters is important as It does have a dulling effect on cutter heads. Our factory sharpens tooling on site in order to provide excellent quality when milling such woods. Garapa is golden yellow in appearance and is available from our facilities as both FSC and Non-FSC certifications. Our Garapa is kiln-dried (KD) readily available as decking, flooring, dimensional lumber, E4E, S4S, RS (Rough Sawn), deck tiles, and table slabs.<\/div>\n<div class=\"productinfo2\">\n<table border=\"1\" width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"34%\">\n<h3>Common Name:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td width=\"66%\">Info coming soon<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Botanical Name:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Apuleia Leiocarpa<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Indigenous to:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>The variety &#8220;molaris&#8221; is found in the Amazonian forest, mainly in flooded areas.

In some cases, this variability can be observed inside the same piece of wood. This species cannot be used without appropriate preservative treatment for end-uses under use class 3 except for some parts of a work such as windows, less exposed than<br \/>\nothers (entrance doors, shutters).<br \/>\nThis species naturally covers the use class 5 (end-uses in marine environment or in brackish water)<br \/>\ndue to its high silica content. However, it is not recommended to use it in case of strong structural<br \/>\nconstraints due to its medium mechanical properties; it is most suitable for end-uses like shipbuilding.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Fastening Method:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Nailing \/ screwing:\u00a0good but pre-drilling is necessary<br \/>\nGluing: Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Ecosystem impact:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>This wood species is not listed in the CITES Appendices or on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Toxicity and allergic reactions:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Although severe reactions are uncommon, Garapa has been reported to occasionally cause skin irritation.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Odor:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Nothing discernable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Products we manufacture using this species:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/fsc-hardwood-decking\/\">decking<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/wholesale-hardwood-flooring\/\">flooring<\/a>,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/rough-sawn-dimensional-lumber-fsc-certified-wholesale-available\/\"> dimensional lumber, E4E, S4S, RS (Rough Sawn)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/deck-tiles\/\">deck tiles<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/wood-slabs\/\">table slabs<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Other common uses:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li>Exterior joinery<\/li>\n<li>Light carpentry<\/li>\n<li>Heavy carpentry<\/li>\n<li>Hydraulic works (seawater)<\/li>\n<li>Ship building (ribs)<\/li>\n<li>Cooperage<\/li>\n<li>Turned goods<\/li>\n<li>Furniture or furniture components<\/li>\n<li>Wood frame house<\/li>\n<li>Flooring<\/li>\n<li>Industrial or heavy flooring<\/li>\n<li>Interior joinery<\/li>\n<li>Ship building<\/li>\n<li>Stairs (inside)<\/li>\n<li>Vehicle or container flooring<\/li>\n<li>Cabinetwork (high class furniture)<\/li>\n<li>Tool handles (resilient woods)<\/li>\n<li>Formwork<\/li>\n<li>Boxes and crates Wood-ware<\/li>\n<li>Note: Finishing is easy but filling is recommended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"color: white; background: #006e3a; border: none;\" colspan=\"2\">\n<h3>Susceptibility to<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Dry Wood borers:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Durable &#8211; sapwood demarcated (risk limited to sapwood)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Fungi:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Class 3 &#8211; moderately durable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Termites:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Class M &#8211; moderately durable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Treatability:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>Class 3 &#8211; poorly permeable<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h3>Janka Hardness:<\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul class=\"chart--horiz\">\n<li class=\"chart__bar\" data-skill=\"42.5\"><span class=\"chart__label\">1700 lbf (20,040 N)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pbheader\">\n<p>More Product Information<\/p>\n<div class=\"moreinfo\"><a class=\"btn\" title=\"Get A Quote on wood slabs\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/wood-slab-quote-request\/\">Get A Quote<\/a><a class=\"btn\" title=\"The Janka Scale Ipe\" href=\"https:\/\/advantageflorestal.com.br\/the-janka-scale\/\">The Janka Scale<\/a> <a class=\"btn\" title=\"Wood Terms and Definitions\" href=\"https:\/\/advantageflorestal.com.br\/wood-terms-definitions\/\">Wood Definitions<\/a><a class=\"btn\" title=\"Deck tiles\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/deck-tiles\/\">Deck Tiles<\/a> <a class=\"btn\" title=\"Decking\" href=\"https:\/\/www.advantageflorestal.com.br\/fsc-hardwood-decking\/\">Decking<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Garapa &#8211; (Apuleia Leiocarpa) Other common names include Brazilian Oak, Brazilian Ash, Cobre, and Garrote.
