often unable to be differentiated. It has a lustrous finish.
Grain – Hemlock generally has a straight and even grain with clear growth rings and a fine texture.
Texture – Fine
Characteristics
Drying Characteristics – It Kiln dries slowly because of its high moisture content, but seasons well.
Hemlock can be air-seasoned or kiln dried to minimise degradation. Drying defects may occur
including uneven moisture content, warping and chemical stains. Ease of drying is moderate. It should
be resin free and odourless when properly dried. It should have a high dimensional stability when
properly dried.
All Illingworth Ingham’s Hemlock is kiln-dried.

Durability – Very little resistance to decay so needs proper and adequate protection.
Stability – High dimensional stability. Highly rated for its stability under different moisture conditions.
Weight – Moderate
Working properties
Machinability – It is very easy to machine and mould and planes to a good finish. Surfaces may
scratch or dent however, due to the softness of the wood.
Nailing – Vertical Grain Hemlock has good nail holding properties and has very good resistance to
splitting when nailed.
Screwing – It also has very good screwing properties and a good screw holding ability.
Gluing – It can be glued with ease too.
