Fraxinus americana
White Ash (Fraxinus americana) is a medium-hardness wood balancing workability and wear resistance, with a Janka hardness of 702 lbf (3122 N) and a density of about 0.6 g/cm³. It originates from north america.
With radial shrinkage of 4.9% and tangential shrinkage of 7.8% (a T/R ratio of 1.59), it is very stable in service, with low risk of cupping or distortion. Its fiber saturation point is around 28%, below which the wood begins to shrink and move as it dries.
