ANCHORSEAL
End Sealer for Logs and Lumber

Description

A high quality wax sealer that provides protection to prevent end checking in freshly sawn green logs and lumber. The sooner ANCHORSEAL is applied after sawing, the more effective it will be in reducing end checking.

Benefits

ANCHORSEAL stops most end checking before it begins. The sooner your wood is ANCHORSEALed after cutting/end trimming, the more effective it will be. Depending on the species, you can save 5% - 20% of your logs or lumber: the yield is increased and natural resources are conserved.

  Application
 
  1. ANCHORSEAL is applied as soon as possible after cutting or end trimming, to all end grain surfaces. On valuable veneer logs, areas where bark is removed should also be ANCHORSEALed.
  2. Apply ANCHORSEAL with a brush, roller, or with spray equipment. If a sprayer is used, the tip must be large enough to accommodate the thick ANCHORSEAL emulsion. A dump gun can be used with a #6 nozzle.
  3. ANCHORSEAL should be applied "to the drip": apply as much as the lumber or log will hold, until it begins to drip slightly. If there is no dripping, it may be too little. If there is heavy dripping, it is too much.
  4. Valuable logs will benefit from a heavy application of ANCHORSEAL. Logs under 24"/60cm can be coated "to the drip." Logs over 24"/60 cm should be coated very heavily, perhaps twice within 15 minutes.
