    physical propertiesRed oak has extremely high hardness, strength, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for making various furniture and building materials. In addition, red oak also has good seismic performance and can adapt to various environmental changes, so it is widely used in outdoor buildings and garden landscapes.

    Appearance featuresRed oak has a darker color and a beautiful and unique texture. The appearance of red oak is usually similar to that of white oak, but due to the finer rays of the wood pulp, there are fewer visible patterns. The vast majority of red oak has straight lines and rough textures.

    Processing performance: Red oak has good mechanical processing performance; Although it is recommended to drill holes first, the nails and screws have good fixation performance; Good surface can be obtained after dyeing and polishing; Dry slowly and prone to cracking and warping; High shrinkage rate and easily variable performance.

    Usage: Red oak has no corrosion resistance, high fracture strength, and excellent resistance to steam bending. So it is mainly used for building materials, furniture, flooring, interior architectural design, interior fine woodworking products and lace, doors, kitchen cabinets, paneling, etc.

    black walnut

    Black walnut wood is easy to use manual tools and mechanical processing, with good fixing performance of nails, screws, and glue. It has excellent painting and dyeing properties, and can achieve a particularly good surface after polishing. It dries slowly and requires careful care to avoid drying aging. Black walnut wood has good dimensional stability and has been rated as a wood with strong corrosion resistance for heartwood. Even in environments prone to corrosion, it is a durable wood.

    Black walnuts are very expensive, and furniture is usually made of wood veneer, rarely solid wood.
