  Southern Yellow Pine Presssure Treated Lumber

Gulf Coast Lumber specializes in selling #1 Grade quality pressure treated lumber at remarkable prices. We sell a full line of Southern Yellow Pine treated lumber ready to ship in bundles or as pieces to your project from locations across the Gulf Coast Region including Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida.

Southern Yellow Pine is the preferred species for pressure treatment because of its unique cellular structure which permits deep, uniform penetration of preservatives.  Some 85% of all pressure treated lumber produced in the U.S. is Southern Pine.   In addition to being the strongest softwood structural pine, it is abundantly grown, and dimensionally stable.

  Pressure Treated Lumber Options
 

Gulf Coast Lumber sells both pressure treated lumber and untreated wood products to meet your requirements and in accordance with national and local regulations.

Most all our pressure treated dimensional lumber is treated with MCA (Micronized Copper Azole). We also have ACQ (Alkaline Copper Quat) and MCQ (Micronized Copper Quat) treatments available for special projects that require these treatments.  Larger dimensional lumber (2x8 and above) can be treated with CCA(Chromated Copper Arsenate) but only for use in certain commercial construction applications.

CCA Pressure Treated Lumber
CCA is considered by many professionals to be the best treatment for lumber. It is clean to work with, long-lasting, and relatively non-corrosive to metal hardware and fasteners.

ACQ Pressure Treated Lumber
ACQ treated lumber is an effective product approved for consumer use. ACQ has been in use since 1990 for projects ranging from decks to docks to piers. ACQ is more corrosive to hardware and fasteners than CCA and MCA so coated hardware and fasteners needs to be used with ACQ treated lumber.

MCA Pressure Treated Lumber -
MCA treated lumber is an excellent and popular choice for dimensional lumber as it relatively non-corrosive to hardware and fasteners and does not leach as much as ACQ.

MCQ Pressure Treated Lumber
MCQ treated lumber is another good choice for dimensional lumber as it is also relatively non-corrosive to hardware and fasteners and is virtually odorless and colorless.  In fact, MCQ treated lumber looks so natural it is sometimes returned by customers who argue it was delivered untreated.

For more information on these treatment options contact one of our product specialists online or give us a call at (281) 670-8631 to discuss your requirements.  In Costa Rica call us at (506) 2671-2339

Extended Durability - For an even longer lasting bulkhead or retaining wall, use our polymer coating on your rough treated lumber components.

Our polymer vinyl coating stops the chemicals used for pressure treating from leaching - meaning the treatment stays in the lumber forever to protect and preserve your investment.
