Cedar 1x6 Vertical Grain Board

Description

This Western Red Cedar 1×6 vertical-grain board is milled smooth on all four sides with eased edges (S4SEE), making it ready to install without additional surfacing. Vertical grain orientation means the growth rings run perpendicular to the face of the board, which translates to more uniform expansion and contraction as the sauna cycles through heat and humidity — an important quality in a high-moisture environment.

Available in six lengths — 1, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10 feet — so you can select exactly what your layout requires and minimize waste when cutting benches, wall paneling, or trim to fit your space.

Key Features

• Western Red Cedar species — natural oils in the wood resist moisture uptake, reducing the risk of warping and checking through repeated heat and humidity cycles
• Vertical grain orientation — growth rings run perpendicular to the face, producing a more stable board that expands and contracts predictably in sauna conditions
• 1x6 nominal width — a practical bench and skirt dimension that balances coverage area with the airflow gap needed between slats
• S4SEE mill finish — smooth on all four sides with eased edges, so the board is ready to install and comfortable against bare skin without additional sanding or routing
• Six length options (1', 4', 6', 7', 8', 10') — choosing the length closest to your finished cut reduces waste and simplifies layout

1'

• 1-foot length suited to short fill pieces, skirt returns, and accent cuts where minimal material is needed

4'

• 4-foot length works well for corner bench sections and smaller sauna footprints where full-length slats would overhang

6'

• 6-foot length covers standard bench runs in compact to mid-size rooms with minimal or no cutting

7'

• 7-foot length accommodates rooms with slightly longer bench walls without requiring a join in the slat

8'

• 8-foot length aligns with common stud-wall dimensions, making it efficient for floor-to-ceiling skirt panelling

10'

• 10-foot length reduces the number of end joints needed on longer bench runs, keeping the surface visually clean and structurally continuous

SHIPPING & DELIVERY

Sauna wood is not free shipping. Length, piece count, profile, and weight set the rate. These are the Bathing Brands contiguous-US flat rates. Canada is the same table plus $100. Alaska, Hawaii, and remote addresses are quoted.

Checkout charges the 8' piece-count table (contiguous US). Canada is the same table plus $100. Boards over 8' use that same checkout rate; dock or liftgate extras are a follow-up. Alaska, Hawaii, and remote addresses are quoted.

BOARDS UP TO 8'

Under 40 pieces generally ships FedEx Ground in cardboard. Over 40 pieces generally ships LTL with a liftgate on a wood pallet. The longest board in the order sets the rate tier.

• Under 19 boards — $195
• 20–39 boards — $395
• 40–99 boards — $495
• 100–299 boards — $695
• 300–499 boards — $895
• 500–799 boards — $995
• 800–999 boards — $1,295

BOARDS OVER 8' UP TO 10'

These lengths ship LTL on a wood pallet. They do not qualify for a liftgate — you need a dock, machinery, or hand offload on site. Carriers allow about one hour to unload before extra fees.

• Under 19 boards — $295
• 20–39 boards — $495
• 40–99 boards — $595
• 100–299 boards — $795
• 300–499 boards — $995
• 500–799 boards — $1,095
• 800–999 boards — $1,395

HOW THIS SHIPS

• We pack for a safe arrival at the lowest rate that fits the order.
• Boards over 8' carry a surcharge because long crates cost more to move than a standard skid.
• Heaters, doors, or accessories on the same order can offset some of that freight.
