Sapwood is sharply demarcated and is pale yelllowish white. Grain is usually straight. Pieces with curly or wavy grain are not uncommon. Katalox has exceptional strength properties, and is among the very stiffest and strongest woods available worldwide. Katalox is considered difficult to work on account of its high density. The wood has a moderate to high blunting effect on cutters. Common uses include inlays, fine furniture and cabinetry, parquet flooring, guitars, turnings and other small specialty items.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso known as Mexican Royal Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine even texture and a good natural luster\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplying dewaxed shellac as a sanding sealer prior to adding a topcoat is an option for woods with a high oil content \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNative to Southern Mexico, Central America and Northern South America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness:  1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 3\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength:  24\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e(1) Katalox -  1\/4\" x 3\" x 24\" - Dimensional Lumber\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood is a product of nature, and as such, no two pieces are alike to start with, the same wood growing in different locales can vary greatly even though it is the exact same species.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDue to the nature of wood movement, shrinkage and expansion are possible.
