Botanical Name : Claria Racemosa
Family : Moraceae
Other names : n.a
Distribution : -
Sapwood :

Clearly demarcated
Grain : Straight or interlocked.
Texture : Medium
Working Properties : Machining goes well with a smooth result. However there is a blunting effect due to the silica content. Pre-drilling is recommended. The results with gluing and finishing are good. Drying goes relatively easy. Kiln drying must be done with care, to prevent checking.
