19mm x 38mm Sawn Treated Timber Batten (1.5″ x 0.75″) 4.8m

What Is 19×38 Timber 4.8m?

The 19mm x 38mm x 4.8m Timber Batten serves as a fixing point for materials in roofing applications. These pressure-treated battens are positioned between the rafters to support the roofing felt and provide a secure attachment point for tiles or slates.

Roof battens, also known as tile battens, wooden battens, or counter battens, are timber pieces without structural grading. They offer an economical option compared to other construction materials.

As a reputable supplier of roofing materials, we offer a range of batten sizes to meet your needs. Please note that the colour and finish of the timber may vary slightly as it is a natural product.

Benefits of Treated Timber

The 19×38 timber batten is a high-quality, graded product tailored to meet building requirements.

Our timber battens are responsibly sourced and made from high-pressure-treated sawn timber.

The treatment process enhances their strength and provides resistance against wood-rotting fungi, insect attacks, and routine decay.

Untreated or sawn timber offers no protection against adverse environmental conditions. Therefore, it is essential to use treated timber battens to meet modern roofing standards.

We are committed to providing quality materials and ensuring the satisfaction of our customers in the building and construction industry.
