Red Oak Bookmatched Plain Sliced B/C Bookmatched Back PB Core 3/4" 4x8

Red oak plywood is characterized by a sharp contrast between coarse early wood and smooth late wood. The heartwood color is light tan to pinkish to reddish brown to dark tan or khaki.

The Particleboard Core (PBC) is composed of wood particles which vary in size bonded together with urea formaldehyde. It is the least expensive core option for hardwood plywood, offering a smooth, void-free surface for veneer faces.

Very uniform in thickness and density, PBC is one of the heaviest core options for hardwood plywood construction, weighing as much as 100 lbs per 3/4? panel. It has the least amount of structural (spanning) strength compared to the other core options and is subject to the greatest amount of expansion if exposed to moisture.

PBC is a preferred core for fixture and low-end furniture applications including Ready-To-Assemble furniture. It is also used in selected kitchen cabinet components.

  • 4 x 8 Red Oak plywood panel
  • Plain slice: Cutting logs in half lengthwise, then slicing the halves lengthwise produces a veneer with a unique grain pattern
  • Bookmatched: Every other leaf or component of veneer from a given log is turned over to produce a mirror image at the splice joint, much like turning the pages of a book, to produce an aesthetically appealing look across the face
  • B Face/C back
  • No added formaldehyde (NAF)
