Wooden Impregnated Rod 1500 mm Ø23 mm, Kard

Wooden Impregnated Rod 1500 mm Ø23 mm from Kard is a treated solid timber rod designed for outdoor and light structural use. With a length of 1500 mm and a diameter of 23 mm, the cylindrical profile provides consistent strength and a smooth surface suitable for fencing, garden supports, and DIY constructions where moisture and decay resistance are needed.

Advantages

The impregnation treatment enhances durability against moisture, fungal decay and insect attack compared with untreated wood. Its uniform cylindrical shape and consistent diameter make it easy to cut, drill and fix with standard fasteners. The compact dimensions and treated surface allow direct use outdoors without immediate additional coating, reducing preparation time for common garden and construction tasks.

Suitable for

• Garden supports for plants and vines
• Light fencing rails and picket supports
• DIY handrails, trellises and pergola elements
• Temporary scaffolding or formwork bracing for non-loadbearing tasks

Key specifications

• Material: solid wood, preservative-impregnated
• Length: 1500 mm
• Diameter: 23 mm (cylindrical)
• Profile: smooth, round rod
• Surface treatment: pressure or diffusion impregnation for moisture and decay resistance
• Intended use: outdoor and light structural applications

How to use

Select rods of appropriate length and diameter for the intended task and, if necessary, cut to size with a fine-toothed saw to maintain a smooth end. Fix the rod using suitable fasteners such as galvanized screws, wire ties or brackets depending on the application and expected loads. When joining or embedding in the ground, ensure a stable base and consider additional support for load-bearing assemblies. Pre-drilling is recommended before inserting screws to prevent splitting.

Usage recommendations

For prolonged service life, apply a compatible exterior wood finish or paint to exposed cut ends and connection points after installation. Inspect periodically for signs of wear or biological degradation and replace rods used in high-moisture or load-bearing locations if any structural compromise appears.
