Descrição botânica

This camphor tree is large to very large, up to 65 cm tall, with a straight bole up to 100 cm in diameter.

Habitat natural

Distributed within Borneo, this locally abundant tree occurs on leached sandy soils, sometimes in periodically inundated areas or along streams, below 700 m of altitude.

Usos não madeiravéis

Brittle heart is occasionally reported for this species. It contains chemicals that discolor ferrous metals when damp.

TRABALHABILIDADE

Serrar ou Cortar

When green, the timber is easy to saw. Dry timber is less easy to saw because of the presence of silica. Cross cutting is generally easy.

Desdobro da tora em torno para lâminas

It is good for peeling if well steamed, but resin problems.

Desdobro da tora em faqueadeira para lâminas

It is good for peeling if well steamed, but resin problems.

Desgaste de ferramentas

Saw-teeth may become clogged by resin.
