5/4x6 Hardwood Decking

5/4x6 is the standard residential decking board in North America — five-quarter thickness for load and stiffness between joists, six-inch width for the proportion most decks are designed around. If a deck is specified without a dimension named, this is the dimension. Nearly every species we mill is stocked in it, which makes this page the most direct way to compare woods against one another at a fixed size.

Available in Ipe, Cumaru, Batu, Bangkirai, Massaranduba, South Pacific Redwood, Angelim Pedra, Angelique, and thermally modified Nova Korina — in both S4S eased-edge and grooved profiles.

For a narrower plank, see 5/4x4 boards.
