Inside or Outside - Treated, Untreated, Kiln Dried
No-taper Gun Barrel pilings can be used inside or outside. They can be treated to any level you specify or left untreated. They can also be kiln dried before and/or after treatment to accept stains and paints upon installation.

Any Treatments Available
Most pilings are treated with safe and effective CCA, which is approved for most piling applications. Other treatments are readily available upon request. The most common treatment levels are:
- .40 pcf - ground contact
- .60 pcf - freshwater applications
- 2.5 pcf - saltwater applications
Other retention levels are available to meet specifications per engineers or government contract requirements. We have worked on many projects along side architects, engineers, Corps of Engineers, and more.
