PLYWOOD – ZEBRAWOOD
| Botanical Name: Microberlinia Brazzavillensis Common Names: Zebra Appearance: Heartwood is a light brown or cream color with dark blackish brown streaks vaguely resembling a zebra’s stripes. Depending on whether the wood is flatsawn or quartersawn, the stripes can be either chaotic and wavy (flatsawn), or somewhat uniform (quartersawn). Physical Properties: Has a fairly coarse texture and open pores. Grain is usually wavy or interlocked. Working Properties: The wood saws well, but can be very difficult to plane or surface due to the prevalence of interlocking grain. Tearout is common. Zebrawood glues and finishes well, though a pore filler may be desired for the large open pores of the wood’s grain. Uses: Zebrawood is frequently quartersawn and used as veneer. Other uses include: tool handles, furniture, boatbuilding, and skis.Click to view the Columbia Formaldehyde and Wood Dust MSDS Sheet Click to view the Columbia Purebond® Composite Core MSDS Sheet Click to view the Columbia Purebond® Veneer Core MSDS Sheet In Stock
