Dark hornbeam bar blank for cue 40x40x800 mm Billiya

Dark hornbeam (thermomodified) is wood, which at the first stage is dried in natural conditions to a moisture content of 10-12%, after which it is placed in a chamber where, at a temperature of 175-225 degrees Celsius, it acquires rich noble shades of valuable species in color from light brown to dark brown. Steam is used as a protective medium, it does not allow the burning of wood, and also actively participates in the chemical changes that occur with the material.

After heat treatment, the hornbeam becomes dense, does not dry out, does not swell, does not warp, does not crack and does not require any chemical treatment, the structure of the hornbeam becomes denser by 35%. The stability of geometric dimensions with any changes in humidity and ambient temperature improves 10-15 times, the tree acquires immunity to any type of corrosion - cues from a dark hornbeam do not lead over time. During processing, the color changes throughout the thickness of the bar. It is considered the "material of the 21st century" with physical and mathematical properties that are completely priceless.

The advantages of the modified hornbeam include the following qualities:

- ecologicaly clean;

- no deformation under the influence of temperature and moisture;

- preservation of color on all term of operation;
