2-1/2" Hard Maple Butcher Block Tread

Elevate your staircase with the 2½” Hard Maple Butcher Block Stair Tread—a bold, substantial tread that commands attention from every angle. Solid 5/4 boards are glued face-to-face to achieve the full 2½” thickness, showcasing beautiful face grain on all 6 sanded and finished sides. A 1/8” roundover on every edge adds a refined finishing touch. Hard Maple is one of the densest domestic hardwoods available, boasting a Janka rating of 1,450—making it exceptionally resistant to dents and wear. Its creamy white to light tan color and subtle, consistent grain pattern create a clean, contemporary look that works beautifully in modern and Scandinavian-inspired interiors. Hard Maple accepts stain evenly and is an outstanding choice for high-traffic staircases. Available in standard widths of 36”, 42”, 48”, 54”, 60”, and 72”—or specify a custom size—with an 11-1/4” depth that meets code. Choose unfinished to apply your own stain or clear coat, or select a pre-finished option for a ready-to-install tread. These treads look exceptional paired with Viewrail FLIGHT floating stairs, cable railing, or glass railing for a seamless modern aesthetic. Matching landing platforms are available; complete your tread purchase and contact our customer service team to discuss your platform needs.
