Description
Product Overview
Brown UC3 pressure-treated softwood feather edge fence board, measuring 1800mm in length with a 22mm x 150mm section (finished size approx. 16mm x 144mm). Each board is feathered along its width so it overlaps with its neighbour, forming a strong and continuous face typical of closeboard fencing.
