3/4″ x 3 1/4″ x 1′ – 7′ Random Length Rift & Quarter Sawn Select & Better Red Oak

Description

Our 3 1/4″ Rift and Quarter Sawn Red Oak flooring is fit for the most scrutinizing shopper. This 3 1/4″ wide solid red oak hardwood is made using the finest quarter sawn lumber in the industry, and in this Select grade you can expect uniform color and grain.

Quarter Sawn lumber creates a more stable flooring product than plain sawn lumber. This is because of it’s unique properties, and the angle at with the saw blade cuts across the growth rings of the oak.

When oak is quarter sawn, a great deal of the of it becomes Rift oak, meaning the saw blade cuts between a 30 to 60 degree angle across the growth rings. This rift lumber is what becomes the straight, clear planks in your hardwood floor

When a hardwood floor is properly described as Quarter Sawn & Rift, or perhaps Rift & Quartered, this means that the Rift material (defined in the previous paragraph) is included in the end product, which is what you will find in this Rift & Quartered Red Oak Flooring. Including the Rift boards helps lend uniformity to this flooring, since Rift boards are a little bit more pure and have less grain activity than Quarter Sawn boards.

This flooring is unfinished red oak that is 3/4″ thick solid hardwood, 3 1/4″ wide planks, and random lengths from 1 to 7 feet long.
