WP-115 Shiplap 5-3/8" - 2

This lovely 5-3/8" - 2 WP-115 shiplap siding measures 5.375" wide by .718" thickness, enabling the detail to be machined out of four-quarter lumber. The standard canted profile is designed to wick moisture away from the joint area and onto the exposed face in foul weather conditions. The profile is composed of two 2-7/16" broad, 6.612-degree angled lines divided by a 1/16" wide, steep chamfer in the center, merged with a 3/8" broad, slightly angled line that will be hidden beneath the rabbet in front of it when installed. When two pieces of milled lumber are joined, they create a five-inch wide face coverage dimension. We offer a larger 7-1/4" version of this profile for your review and consideration, shiplap siding 7.250" - 3.

You might be wondering what causes tear-out problems during the milling process. It's actually due to the wrong hook angles on the knives. You can learn more about reducing and eliminating tear issues by changing the cutter head hook angle on the knives. Purchasing 12/20 duel angle cutter heads will save substantial money when investing in this style of tooling. Check out the tooling catalog for more information.
