Stretch large canvases flat with finger-spliced pine engineered for strength
Perfectly straight profiles in lengths that would normally warp. Best engineered these Heavy Duty Super Bars using a technique borrowed from structural lumber, bonding multiple pine sections creates joints stronger than solid wood while eliminating the bowing and twisting that plague traditional long bars. The result matters when you're stretching large canvases that demand dimensional stability.
Each bar measures 2 inches wide with a 1½-inch deep profile, substantial enough to support significant canvas weight without flexing. The slightly rounded outer edge protects canvas from sharp creases during stretching, while the ½-inch rise keeps stretched fabric from contacting the frame face, preventing ghost lines where canvas touches wood. This standoff proves essential for maintaining clean paint surfaces, particularly with thin applications where every irregularity shows.
The finger-splicing process bonds short pine sections end-to-end with interlocking joints, creating continuous lengths that maintain straightness across spans where solid wood would inevitably bend. You're building frames that stay square and true, whether constructing standard rectangles or custom dimensions. Bars sold individually, allowing you to purchase exact quantities for specific frame sizes rather than dealing with pre-paired sets.
