Stringer Selection

US Blanks currently offers four wood types for stringer selection: basswood, red cedar, balsa, and 4mm unidirectional plywood.

Our in-house mill capabilities allow us to offer any thickness of wood stringer, including wedges. Some limits are set by the length or width of wood available. Our red cedar comes 6” wide and will not fit all rock- ers, and our plywood has a length limit of 8’1”.

Multiple stringer T-bands, off-set stringers, and Models A’s are all part of our custom stringer capability, along with any conceivable straight cut.

Parabolic rail stringer configurations are also now available in a variety of different blanks sizes. Our standard parabolic templates can be used in any of our shortboard sizes to suit your finished board dimensions and requirements. For a list of our template outlines and configurations please refer to the parabolic specification pages at the end of this catalog
