Cobra Rods

The environmentally friendly solution for preserving any wood product in your future or existing wood projects.



Wood has one common enemy.  That enemy is decay.  There are only 2 ways to prevent decay. One way is to  keep the moisture content below 20%  using roof overhangs, flashings or some other method of excluding water.  The other way is to provide an environment that inhibits the growth of micro organisms which cause the decay.  Pressure treating is one effective method .  In unavoidable wet situations , wood even
pressure treating wood is prone to failure.  This failure can be averted !

Picture
 The installation of a Cobra Rod, which  will disperse its active ingredients into the wood at moisture levels  above 18% ,  inhibits micro organisms and insects  from  living in the wood.  The rods have a life  expectancy of 5 - 10 years and are easily replaced. 


Effective preservation of wood in:
Overhangs, connections with metal and wood!

Deck Beams,  Deck posts


Fence posts

Treat wood at any location that is subject to recurrant moisture infiltration, such as groundline, endgrain,  upward facing checks, contact with another piece of wood. These are always the location where decay starts


Offers  protection for years.

Easily replaced, cost effective
