Appalachian Species & Grades

Ash Prime is our highest-yielding grade. Ash Prime yields, at a minimum, 83-1/3% clear face cuttings. It is ideal for applications requiring long, wide, clear-face cuttings or multiple rips and chops, with minimum cutting sizes of 3” x 7’ or 4” x 5’. The product is unselected for color. We grade after drying and surfacing, and against all natural drying or surfacing defects (pin knot no defect).
