An oily hardwood, it has very high natural resistance to insects, pests and decay — a go-to outdoor timber for use in exposed areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIroko is an oily, waxy wood that’s resistant to large changes in its moisture content, meaning it has low levels of movement, shrinking and warping. This makes it a dimensionally stable wood, even popular for marine use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs mentioned, preservative treatment is not usually required before iroko is used outdoors, although it may be preferred in order to retain the original copper shades of colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough we only speak of its durability and stability, the Yoruba people (a West African ethnic group) believe the tree to even have healing properties!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStrength and hardness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIroko is dense and abrasion resistant, with a dry weight of 660kg\/m³. On the Janka scale — a measure of the relative hardness of different wood species — iroko clocks in at a very respectable 1,260 lbf (pound force). The test measures the amount of force required to embed a steel ball into the wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor comparison, a classically scratch and impact-resistant timber like teak has 1,155 lbf, with species of oak ranging from 1,120–1,360 lbf — which means iroko is in esteemed company.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorkability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIroko is a fairly workable wood, producing good results with hand tools and when being planed, turned and moulded. The wood takes well to glueing, nailing, finishing and varnishing, with a tolerable steam bending ratio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, iroko does have a tendency to blunt tools because of the presence of hard calcium carbonate. In areas where iroko’s characteristic interlocking grain occurs, tearout can also be an issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSustainability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to the IUCN Red List — a leading database of the conservation status of the world’s biodiversity — Iroko is classified as ‘\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.iucnredlist.org\/species\/33903\/9817388\"\u003eLower Risk\u003c\/a\u003e’, a classification below Vulnerable.
