Yellow Cedar STK 2x6 Plank
Select tight knots (STK) 2x6 Yellow Cedar is denser and more rot-resistant than Western Red Cedar — sized up for real structural spans.
- Deck joists, beams, and stair stringers
- Heavy-duty fence rails and gate frames
- Sauna framing and bench supports
- Fascia and larger soffit trim
Available in lengths from 6 to 20 feet. The tight, sound knots are part of the look; the density and natural oils are what make Yellow Cedar the pick for anything that has to survive decades of BC rain. Need less bulk or more? We also stock this same STK grade in 2x4 and 2x8.
