86x19 mm Spotted Gum is a narrower decking board that also works well as a matching screening or batten timber, giving a consistent look across a deck and any adjoining privacy screen. It is one of the most widely available Australian-grown decking hardwoods in the Sydney market, which typically means shorter lead times than the less common native species.

Sold as Class 1 hardwood: the supplier specification sheet publishes Class 1 above-ground natural durability with a 40+ year service expectation. Spotted Gum is grown along the NSW and Queensland coast from native forest and some plantation stock. Its pale gold to warm brown colouring, with the small darker gum-vein flecks the species is named for, gives a distinctive look on a finished deck. The surface finish supplied (dressed all round or sawn) is confirmed at order stage.

Sold per linear metre in random lengths. Preferred lengths, packs and bulk quantities are quoted against current supplier availability: add your linear metres to the cart, or request a quote for project volumes.

Looking for 90x19 decking? This board measures 86 mm across the face, not 90 mm. Laid with the standard 4 mm gap it covers 90 mm of deck per board, which is why the two sizes need different linear metre quantities for the same area. Sydney Timber Supply does supply genuine 90x19 decking in Merbau and Jambu Mixed. The widths are compared in our 86x19 vs 90x19 decking guide.

Guidance

Working with this timber

Technical profile

From the supplier specification sheet: Spotted Gum covers Corymbia citriodora, C. henryi and C. maculata. It carries a High seasoned strength rating (SD2) with density of 990 to 1180 kg/m3, is termite resistant, and is rated Class 1 above-ground durability with a 40+ year service expectation.

Applications

Decking, screening, cladding, flooring and exterior architectural work.

Installation

Store boards flat, fully supported and off the ground, and keep them dry before installation. Allow the timber to acclimatise at the site before fixing.
Fix with hot dipped galvanised or stainless steel screws, two per joist, pre-drilled and countersunk. Stainless steel fixings are recommended for coastal or poolside work.
Maintain ventilation gaps between boards and adequate ground clearance so the deck can dry out; the supplier installation guidelines under Documents and downloads set out clearances in detail.
Use sharp, quality cutting tools and seal cut ends with decking oil. Wear appropriate eye, ear and breathing protection when cutting.

Maintenance

Clean the surface before coating; an oxalic acid based timber cleaner removes dirt, grease and tannin stains.
Finish with a penetrating decking oil per the coating manufacturer's label, then re-coat on a regular cycle suited to exposure and traffic.
Monitor the coated timber for colour loss and dryness, and re-coat when it begins to look dry to maintain protection.
