3-1/2" Quartersawn White Oak Butcher Block Tread

The 3½” Quartersawn White Oak Butcher Block Stair Tread is a showstopper—thick, solid, and finished to perfection on all 6 sides. Solid 5/4 lumber boards are glued face-to-face to reach the full 3½” thickness, showcasing rich face grain with a 1/8” roundover on every edge for a smooth, polished transition. 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 or pre-finished to your specifications. Pair with Viewrail FLIGHT floating stairs and cable or glass railing for a dramatic, open-concept staircase. Matching landing platforms are available; complete your tread purchase and contact our customer service team to discuss your platform needs.
