Boron Rods
Description
Lectros Boron Rods are fused glass-like, exceptionally concentrated, wood preservatives manufactured from inorganic borates. They have been developed to provide the maximum level of preservative available in the rod form. This provides a highly effective method for preventing fungal decay in both heartwood and sapwood of new and in service timbers.

Lectros Boron Rods are placed strategically in wood where it is at risk from becoming wet. They dissolve in the water in wet wood to release the preservative which is then distributed within the wood by water movement. As water provides the primary condition for wood decay the Lectros Boron Rods provide an exceptional and effective moisture controlled preservative system which is located precisely where it is required.
