LevelMaster P4 Rated Merbau Stair Treads (Kwila) Kiln Dried Step Treads are some of the best timber treads on the market.  Merbau (AKA Kwila, Ipil or Vesi) is a hardwood from South East Asia and PNG. It is a very hard wearing timber with natural resistance to termites and fire. Kwila is Kiln dried (Moisture content less than 15%) and has a durability rating of 1. This means it has a life expectancy of more than 20 years if maintained correctly.
 
SIZE: 250x50mm Nominal, 250x47mm Finished. These Merbau timber treads come in a standard length of 1200mm.
 
FIXING:
Kwila should be pre-drilled when using coach screws for secret fixing. Timber nosing can be fitted to the bottom front edge of treads to reduce the gap between treads. 
 
MERBAU STAIR TREAD MAINTENANCE:
One coat of quality penetrating oil should be applied to all surfaces prior to their installation. Following installation, apply another 2 coats of the same quality oil.  Merbau stair treads are suitable for outside or inside, and their stylish look together with our stringers would make any house look spectacular.
