Teak and Silver Oak
Teak timber is valued in warm countries principally for its extraordinary durability. In India and in Burma, beams of the wood in good preservation are often found in buildings many centuries old, and teak beams have lasted in palaces and temples more than 1,000 years. The timber is practically imperishable under cover.Teakwood is used for shipbuilding, fine furniture, door and window frames, wharves, bridges, cooling-tower louvers, flooring, paneling, railway cars, and venetian blinds. An important property of teak is its extremely good dimensional stability. It is strong, of medium weight, and of average hardness. Termites eat the sapwood but rarely attack the heartwood; it is not, however, completely resistant to marine borers. Burma produces most of the world's supply, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka (Ceylon) ranking next in production.
For best results, it is recommended to either apply polish or paint to the surface
Silver oak's main properties include a combination excellent shock absorbing capabiities due to its soft composition and also making it easy for penetration while nailing etc. At the same time is also exhibits adequate mechanical stability and strength. Silver Oak is mostly found in India in the hilly terrains of Tamilnadu and Karnataka states. Some of the prominent locations where it is found are Yercaud in Tamilnadu and Chikmagalur in Karnataka.
Due to these unique properties this variety of wood mainly finds applications for centering in the construction industry. Silver oak has comparatively lesser probabilities of borer penetration. However, penetration is not completely ruled out. This property makes it suitable for packing purposes, especially for export packaging, without any additional treatment. However, silver oak when chemically seasoned can also be used for furniture applications making it durable and good looking.
For best results, it is recommended only to apply paint to the surface
