Planed Softwood Timber 38x150mm (1.5 x 6 in) finished size 32x144mm is a smooth, versatile timber designed for interior joinery and furniture projects where a clean, on-show finish matters.

Planed timber, often referred to as PSE (Planed Square Edge) or PAR (Planed All Round), has surfaces and edges planed to a consistent, smooth finish. PAR timber is typically used where all sides are visible and can be more costly than PSE. Our 38x150mm timber is sawmilled softwood and finished to 32x144mm, making it suitable for a range of visible-work applications.

This timber is primarily intended for interior use, with exterior use possible when properly treated to resist the elements. It is completely smooth and splinter-free, providing a reliable base for stains, oils or lacquers to achieve a wide variety of looks. Planed timber is easy to work with, finishing well with common timber coatings and allowing for precise, clean joints in projects such as shelving, window sashes or decorative features.

Why choose this 38x150mm size? The planed finish offers a high-quality appearance with a tidy edge profile that remains visually consistent across pieces. Its smooth surfaces reduce planing work on site and improve the overall finish of visible parts. The timber’s softwood composition makes it straightforward to cut, drill and fix, which is advantageous for busy tradespeople handling multiple components in a project.

Availability spans a range of lengths to suit different buildrequirements, from 0.9 m up to 4.2 m. This flexibility helps minimise waste and allows for accurate planning on projects ranging from small internal fit-outs to longer joinery pieces. Armstrong Cheshire promotes competitive pricing by leveraging purchasing savings, ensuring affordable options across the timber range while maintaining reliable stock levels.

Practical tips for use: choose PSE for concealed structures or pieces where one or two faces are visible, and opt for PAR when you want all sides to present a uniform finish. When used externally, apply an appropriate preservative or treatment to extend longevity. For interior displays, planed timber accepts finishes evenly, producing a professional, shop-floor-ready result.

Clean Planed Finish

This timber is planed to a smooth finish to help you get a neat result on visible work. The square edges make it easier to align, mark out and join cleanly. It’s a solid choice for interior jobs where straight lines and tidy corners matter.
The finished size is 32x144mm, not the nominal 38x150mm. Planing removes material to create a consistent surface and edge. That difference matters when you are setting out frames, shelves, or boxing that must fit first time.

Built for Joinery Jobs

Planed softwood timber is widely used for joinery and property maintenance tasks. It works well for shelving, battens, trim work and general interior carpentry. The smooth face also takes paint, stain, oil and lacquer well when prepared correctly.

PSE Size Clarity

PSE means planed square edge, which refers to a planed finish with 90-degree corners. It helps you build cleaner lines and tighter joints than rough sawn timber. Expect slight variation in size because timber can move with moisture content and machining tolerances.

Coverage and Weight Guide

With a finished face width of 144mm, it covers 0.144m² per linear metre of board face. Weight is best estimated by volume and timber density, which varies by species and moisture content. Using a typical redwood/Scots pine density range, it is around 2,420g per metre, which helps when planning handling and transport.

Indoor First, Outdoor Only if Treated

This type of planed softwood is mainly used indoors, where it stays stable and finishes well. If you plan to use it outside, it needs the right preservative treatment and an appropriate external coating system. Without that protection, softwood can take on moisture and degrade faster.
