Finger Joint
An Engineered Wood Product
Finger jointed lumber is engineered to be stronger and straighter than its solid wood counterpart. Short pieces of kiln dried, heat treated blocks are defect chopped and ripped and are then used in the finger joint manufacture process. Finger jointed lumber can be produced in many different lengths specific to customer and market requirements thereby saving time and money for the builder at the job site.
