Elevate your staircase with our precision-machined 40mm thick solid timber sawtooth string, expertly crafted for strength, accuracy, and a clean modern look in any home. These strings are sold as a pair and delivered as a left-hand and right-hand string together. The tread pockets are routed the whole way through to prevent water pooling and rotting the timber.

Dimensions & Profile:

• Thickness: 40mm
• Going: 240mm or 250mm
• Rise options: 170mm, 175mm, 180mm, 185mm or 190mm
• Precision-cut sawtooth profile designed to suit our 40mm Open Treads

This string is made specifically for open riser sawtooth stairs, where the treads sit on the cut steps of the string. It works equally well as a wall string or outer string and pairs perfectly with our 40mm Open Timber Stair Treads for a clean, secure fit. These strings can also work with 30mm treads if you are just chasing some more rigidity in the string.

Perfect for both new builds and renovations, the 40mm construction delivers solid performance in family homes while giving a neat, continuous side profile that suits contemporary, coastal, or traditional designs.

Key Benefits:

• Easy assembly with accurately cut sawtooth steps for a straightforward tread fit
• Smooth, sanded surfaces ready for your choice of stain, oil, or clear finish

All products are delivered raw, pre-finished sanded to 100 grit.

Tasmanian Oak (a blend of Eucalyptus delegatensis, obliqua, and regnans) is a light, warm Australian hardwood with creamy straw to pale pinkish-brown tones and a fine, straight grain that finishes exceptionally smoothly. Versatile, stable, and resilient, it machines beautifully and takes stains or polishes with ease, making it a favourite for elegant interior staircases. Its medium density and excellent workability suit precision components like treads, risers, stringers and handrails — delivering a clean, timeless look that's perfect for bright, contemporary  spaces or classic designs
