Plywood for Versatile Construction Needs

Plywood is a versatile and widely used material in construction projects, known for its durability and strength. It’s an engineered wood made from thin layers of wood veneer glued together to form a sturdy sheet. At 9 Brothers Building Supply, we provide high-quality plywood options to meet a variety of construction needs. Whether you're working on indoor or outdoor projects, our selection includes ACX plywood and CDX exterior laminated wood in different thicknesses to suit your requirements.

ACX Plywood

ACX plywood is a popular choice for many construction applications due to its durability and smooth surface. At 9 Brothers Building Supply, we offer ACX plywood made from Douglas Fir, available in thicknesses ranging from one-quarter inch to three-quarters of an inch. Each sheet measures four feet by eight feet, making it ideal for larger projects.

Key features of ACX plywood include:

• High-Quality Surface: The "A" grade front provides a smooth, sanded finish suitable for visible applications, while the "C" grade back may have minor imperfections.
• Weather-Resistant Adhesive: The "X" in ACX indicates the use of an exterior-grade adhesive, offering moisture resistance for outdoor projects.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for outdoor furniture, sheds, and projects that require both strength and a clean appearance.

The durability of ACX laminated wood makes it a reliable choice for areas where exposure to moisture is a concern. Its strong adhesive properties help maintain the integrity of the wood even in changing weather conditions.

CDX Exterior Plywood

CDX exterior laminated wood is another essential option for construction projects, especially when durability and cost-effectiveness are priorities. We carry CDX plywood made from pine, available in thicknesses from three-eighths to three-quarters of an inch. Like ACX laminated wood, our CDX sheets are four feet by eight feet, providing ample coverage for large-scale projects.

Key benefits of CDX exterior plywood include:

• Durable Construction: The "C" and "D" grades refer to the quality of the plywood’s front and back faces, with "C" being the better finish.
• Moisture Resistance: While not completely waterproof, CDX plywood can withstand short-term exposure to moisture, making it suitable for roofing and wall sheathing.
• Cost-Effective Option: An affordable choice for structural applications where the finish is not a primary concern.

CDX plywood is commonly used in residential construction for roofing, exterior walls, and subflooring. It provides strong structural support while being budget-friendly, making it a go-to option for many contractors and builders.

Choosing the Right Plywood for Your Project

When selecting laminated wood, consider the specific requirements of your project:

• For Outdoor Use: ACX laminated wood is recommended due to its superior weather resistance and smoother surface.
• For Structural Support: CDX laminated wood is ideal for subfloors, wall sheathing, and roofing projects where strength is critical.
• For Aesthetic Projects: Choose ACX laminated wood when the appearance of the surface matters, as it has a smoother and cleaner finish.

At 9 Brothers Building Supply, we’re committed to helping you find the right materials for your construction needs. Our knowledgeable team can guide you through the selection process, ensuring you choose the correct type and thickness of laminated wood for your specific project.
