116 OctoWood • ingenious octagonal profile made from Pinius silvestris = pine wood • thanks to straight outer surfaces, the insulators can be assembled particularly easily without any pre-drilling • the octagonal profile ensures a secure grip on pallets and makes transport easier as it does not roll away • with highly effective pressure impregnation, therefore ideal for use class 4 (= exposed to constant weathering and ground contact) • the impregnation effectively protects the wood from moisture, prevents rotting and therefore increases stability and durability • pressure-impregnated wood requires less maintenance than untreated wood and is less susceptible to warping or shrinkage • the post is perfectly and evenly protected - without any gaps - against insects, fungi and mould rot • this post is also well-suited for erecting a wooden fence • suitable for continuous earth and water contact • 10-year guarantee 10-year guarantee Wooden Posts for Permanent Fencing Even growth rings = even growth Close growth rings = Slow growth Raw materials Heartwood Sapwood With its 8 sides, the wooden post with ingenious octagonal profile of pine wood (Pinius Sylvestris) enables flexibility when fitting insulators. The most commonly used fence post is available in different lengths as well as different diameters, allowing it to be used in any fence system. Pine wood is not a hardwood and is therefore easy to work with. • Does not have to be impregnated • Contains the natural fungus inhibitor ‘pinosylvin’ • Has resin channels throughout • ‘Dead’ wood • Lends the post rigidity • Only the sapwood part is impregnated • The membrane of the wood fibre cell is coated in a copper sulphate layer • Impregnated with Wolmanit CX in a pressure tank process OctoWood uses only slow-growing Scandinavian pine grown north of 64 degrees latitude: • Low temperatures • Not much daylight • Smaller tree crowns • Straight trunk • High rigidity • High breaking load
