Base Rail with Rebate (American Oak) - Bulk Buy / Random Lengths

This is a bulk-buy product sold by the metre. It will be supplied in random lengths. It has a minimum purchase quantity 25 metres.
If you require set lengths or a smaller quantity of rail, this product can also be purchased in individual lengths.

Where would you normally use timber base rails?
As a base rail as part of the balustrade on a staircase.

What is it made out of?
Sustainably sourced American Oak.
The material may be a mixture of solid and finger-jointed (refer photos).
The grade of timber that we use is referred to as SELECT, and is the highest quality available.
It is relatively clear and free of defects, but a small amounts of gum vein, surface checking (splits), tight knots and black specks are acceptable within the SELECT grading rules.
These defects give the timber its character, and will not be considered in the case of a refund being requested.

How should you finish it?
If looking for a natural finish, then a clear lacquer will be fine; or you can use a stain to achieve your desired colour then use a clear lacquer to finish it off.
If wanting to paint, we suggest using the cheaper priced Pine version of the same rail.
