About This Product
Pressure-Treated Southern Yellow Pine meets the highest grading standards for strength and appearance. Treated for protection against fungal decay, rot and termites, it is ideal for ground contact and a variety of general uses including exposed structures, sill plates, decks, docks, ramps and other outdoor applications. Responsibly manufactured from renewable southern yellow pine, this lumber is both safe and environmentally friendly when used as directed in appropriate applications.Treated wood is typically still wet when it's delivered to The Home Depot or job site. As it dries, you should expect slight changes in width and length. As lumber dries, it may split, cup and warp. This is more likely to occur to occur in lower-grade boards, where knots and uneven grains are already present. Each piece of lumber is unique and carries physical characteristics that may include the following: knots, warping, shrinkage, swelling and/or splitting. Nominal Dimensions: 2 in. x 12 in. x 10 ft. (Actual Dimensions: 1.5 in. x 11.5 in. x 10 ft.)

How long does it need to dry before it can be painted?
Hello WES 716, there is no specific timeframe, as drying time can vary per region. We recommend testing the moisture content by using the water droplet test.
For your 2x12 pressure treated lumber, I know the thickness would actually be 1.5" but is the actual width 11.25" or 11.5"?
Hi GregO, the width of this board will be 11.25".
If a 2x12"x12ft board actually measures 9 to 9 1/4 inch instead of 12 inch is this considerted normal shrinkage? Was it stamped wrong?
