What is 2×1 Timber 4.2m?
Ensure the durability of your roof with the 25mm x 50mm Timber Batten. These treated roof battens are wooden pieces that are placed between the rafters to secure the roofing felt and provide a stable base for your tiles or slates.
Roof battens, also known as tile battens, wooden battens, or counter battens, are timber pieces that lack grading and structural value, which makes them cost-effective compared to other construction materials.

Application of 25×50 Timber 4.2m Roofing Battens
Often referred to as lath for roofing, roofing battens serve as the base for attaching roofing materials. The battens are used to create spacing for shingles and tiles before their installation. Although the battens have no visual impact on the finished roof, they serve as an anchor for the final tiles and slates, ensuring the longevity of your roof and protecting against fungal and insect attacks.
Specifications of 25×50 Timber 4.2m
While they may not have a structural role, roof battens offer numerous benefits. By installing insulation between the battens, you can significantly increase savings and reduce energy costs.

The Benefits of Treated Timber 25×50
Treated Timber 25×50 is a high-quality, graded batten specifically designed to meet building requirements.
All timber battens available on our website are responsibly sourced and crafted from pressure-treated sawn timber. The treatment process strengthens the battens and enhances their resistance to wood rotting fungi, insect attacks, and decay.
On the other hand, untreated or sawn timber provides no protection against adverse environmental conditions. To ensure the proper functionality and compliance with modern roofing standards, it is crucial to use treated timber for the battens.
