Squares
In the wood business, a square is considered to be a three dimensional rectangular solid cut to a specified square cross section and various lengths
At Lewis & Hockenberry, we sell our squares rough or we can machine them to your specification(s). Take a look at the machine processes to the right that we offer, or call our sales department for more information.
For a quick view of our cross section sizes per specie, view our Dimension Summary. For available length(s) by specie, please view Our Current Inventory.
Please note when viewing the inventory for length; we are using the whole number(s) 8″-68″. The actual lengths may vary and contain sizes in excess of 1/4″, 1/2″, or 3/4″ of an inch. Our sales department would gladly assist you with any questions about our inventory.
-- Rough Squares --
We can sell our squares in the rough cross section and rough length as well as machined. Selling them in the rough benefits the customer that has the machine(s) and tool(s) to mold the square to their specifications.
Our squares are cut in the cross section sizes ranging from 1 x 1 to 3-3/4 x 3-3/4 in varied lengths ranging from 8″-68″
as shown on our dimension summary page.
You will also notice when viewing our current inventorysome species are larger in cross section and or in length. This came about from customer demand.
Surface 4 Sides, S4S
Lewis & Hockenberry has the capability to surface 4 sides, S4S, squares from 1 x 1 to 4-7/8 x 4-7/8, note this larger size is a laminated square. This process can be done to make a square 100% clean – smooth without any rough areas – or with hit or miss – having some rough areas on the square.
In this process we can also add radius or bevel corners. Look under “Radius and Bevel Corners” for more information. Please also look at our MTP and Laminated squares.
Radius Corners
Lewis & Hockenberry has the capability to machine radius corners, or a curved edge, to 1 or all 4 sides of the square.
The radius sizes we are currently able to do are: 1/8″ • 3/16″ • 1/4″
Beveled Corners
Lewis & Hockenberry has the capability to machine beveled corners, or a slanted edge, to 1 or all 4 sides of the square.
If a bevel is wanted on all 4 sides, we are able to do a range up to 9/16″.
Precision End Trim, PET
Lewis & Hockenberry has the capability to cut the squares to a specific length. Whether you request the squares rough or machined, we can trim the square to your desired length.
Laminated Squares
Lewis & Hockenberry has the ability to laminate squares or panels. If you are looking for a larger size not listed on our inventory, we may be able to laminate, glue, the size you need. This process may take a little longer since we need to glue material and allow it to dry.
We are able to do 2 pc to multiple piece laminations. Laminating material depends on your specification for your end product. Our sales department would be glad to discuss this process and see if we can meet your needs.
