Acer saccharum
Hard Maple (Acer saccharum) is a medium-hardness wood balancing workability and wear resistance, with a Janka hardness of 660 lbf (2936 N) and a density of about 0.63 g/cm³. It originates from north america.
With radial shrinkage of 4.8% and tangential shrinkage of 9.9% (a T/R ratio of 2.06), it is moderately stable — allow for seasonal movement in wide boards. Its fiber saturation point is around 29%, below which the wood begins to shrink and move as it dries.
