Posts

Hautapu Pine produces high-quality rounds, halves, quarters, and strainers in various sizes and lengths, ranging from 1.8m to 4.2m.

Our standard sizes are shown below.

Not all post producers have the same measurements for the size categories, and the method by which producers grade their posts into the size categories can also vary.
At Hautapu Pine we use the most conservative method for measuring and grading posts, thus ensuring that you gain maximum value for your money.
Shown below is how we measure the various types of posts.

Rounds and Strainers

  Measurement is taken of the shortest diameter on the small end of the post.

Quarters

  Measurement is taken on the shortest face at the smallest end.

Halves

  Measurement is taken at the smallest end.  Both the face size and the thickness determine the size category.

For all post types, if the post narrows in the middle, the measurement is taken at the narrowest point along the post.

Hautapu Pine’s measurement range for a size category is the minimum and maximum measurements of the small end. For example, a No.1 Round features a size range of 120-139mm, which means that every post within a bundle adheres to small end measurements falling between 120-139mm.
