  2. Janka hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janka_hardness_test

    The Janka hardness test results tabulated below followed ASTM D 1037-12 testing methods. Lumber stocks tested range from 1" to 2" (25–50 mm) thick. The tabulated Janka hardness numbers are an average. There is a standard deviation associated with each species, but these values are not given. [citation needed] No testing was done on actual ...

  4. Australian standard pallet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_standard_pallet

    Australian standard pallets are defined by Australian Standard AS:4068-1993 Flat pallets for materials handling. [2] They can be manufactured in hardwood or softwood, where hardwood is good for durability, weather tolerance and very heavy loads of over 2 tonne. 1165 × 1165 mm softwood pallets can also be manufactured using lighter timber suitable for use as a lightweight pallet using 19mm ...

  5. Eucalyptus wandoo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eucalyptus_wandoo

    When dried, E. wandoo is among Australia's hardest timber when measured by the Janka hardness test. [49] At 15,000 kN, E. wandoo is twice as hard as jarrah, and of comparable hardness to grey ironbark, making it Australia's second or third hardest timber. [49]

  6. Ironwood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ironwood

    Ironwood is a common name for many woods that have a reputation for hardness, or specifically a wood density that is denser than water (approximately 1000 kg/m 3, or 62 pounds per cubic foot), although usage of the name ironwood in English may or may not indicate a tree that yields such heavy wood.

  7. Lignum vitae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lignum_vitae

    Lignum vitae is hard and durable, and is also the densest wood traded (average dried density: ~79 lb/ft 3 or ~1,260 kg/m 3); [4] it will easily sink in water. On the Janka scale of hardness, which measures hardness of woods, lignum vitae ranks highest of the trade woods, with a Janka hardness of 4,390 lbf (compared with Olneya at 3,260 lbf, [5] African blackwood at 2,940 lbf, hickory at 1,820 ...

  8. Forests of Australia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forests_of_Australia

    The majority of Australia's trees are hardwoods, typically eucalypts, rather than softwoods like pine. While softwoods dominate some native forests, their total area is judged insufficient to constitute a major forest type in Australia's National Forest Inventory. [2] The Forests Australia website provides up-to-date information on Australia's ...

  9. Hardness comparison - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_comparison

    A variety of hardness-testing methods are available, including the Vickers, Brinell, Rockwell, Meyer and Leeb tests. Although it is impossible in many cases to give an exact conversion, it is possible to give an approximate material-specific comparison table for steels .
