2-1/2" Quartersawn White Oak Signature Tread

Elevate your staircase with the 2½” Quartersawn White Oak Signature Stair Tread—a bold, substantial tread that commands attention from every angle. The Signature tread’s solid engineered core is wrapped in a hardwood wear layer on all 6 sides, ensuring you never see edge grain—only the consistent, beautiful face of your chosen species. A 1/8” roundover on every edge adds a refined finishing touch. Quartersawn White Oak is cut perpendicular to the growth rings, producing the distinctive ray fleck pattern—a repeating, lustrous shimmer across the face of each tread. This cut also improves dimensional stability compared to flat-sawn lumber, reducing expansion and contraction over time. With a Janka hardness of 1,360 and a rich, golden-tan tone, Quartersawn White Oak is a favorite in craftsman, transitional, and high-end contemporary interiors. 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.
