Sunbelt - Deep Art Canvas Stretcher Bars

Deep Art Canvas Stretcher Bars

Create museum-quality stretched canvases with straight, knot-free bars

Pine stretcher bars that stay straight under tension, a detail that matters when you're stretching large canvases or working with heavy-weight fabrics. Sunbelt machines these bars from knot-free pine to precise dimensions, ensuring corners lock together squarely without gaps or wobble. The 1 5/8" width provides substantial support for canvases up to moderate size, while 3/4" depth creates enough profile to prevent warping when canvas pulls tight during stretching.

Smoothed surfaces protect fabric from snags and splinters during assembly. Straight grain runs the length of each bar, distributing tension evenly rather than creating weak points where canvas might pull unevenly. This construction holds rectangular formats true, critical when you're working to specific dimensions or creating series pieces that need consistent sizing.

Assembly requires only basic tools and standard stretching technique. Bars fit together with snug corner joints that stay secure once canvas tension locks everything in place. Build custom sizes for odd-dimension works, replace damaged stretchers in existing pieces, or construct multiple frames for a body of work. American manufacturing ensures consistent quality across orders when you need matching dimensions for related canvases.
