Overview of Ipe 1×6 Brazilian lumber
Ipe 1×6 is a premium Brazilian lumber board made for long life outdoors. Many builders also call Ipe Brazilian iron wood because it is very dense. In addition, some people refer to Ipe as Brazilian teak due to its rich brown tone. Beyond Lumber is a direct importer, so we focus on steady quality and clean milling.
Ipe 1×6 size and fit
Each board finishes at 3/4 inch by 5.5 inches. Because of this size, Ipe 1×6 fits many deck layouts. Also, it works well for both home and commercial jobs.
Strength and outdoor durability
Ipe ranks among the hardest hardwoods. Its dense structure adds strength for high-use areas. Also, natural oils help it resist moisture and insects. As a result, it holds up well against rot and decay. Therefore, Ipe 1×6 works great for busy decks, pool areas, and exposed walls.
Key benefits of Ipe 1×6
KD quality and milling
Beyond Lumber supplies KD Ipe 1×6 (kiln-dried). Because of kiln drying, the boards stay more stable after install. In addition, S4S E4E milling gives smooth faces and clean edges. Therefore, crews install faster and spend less time on prep.
Direct importer sourcing
We offer FSC-certified Ipe for responsible sourcing. As a result, many projects can support green goals without giving up performance. Also, working with a direct importer helps keep supply more steady.
Design uses and look
Ipe 1×6 adds warmth with deep brown tones. It also brings a clean, modern finish when installed with tight lines. Use it for decking, siding, fencing, soffits, and ceilings. In the end, Ipe 1×6 delivers strength, style, and long-term outdoor value.
Ipe deck offers unmatched durability, beauty, and longevity. Ipe (also known as Brazilian Walnut) is a premium hardwood known for its rich brown tones, tight grain, and exceptional resistance to rot, insects, moisture, and wear. Naturally dense and strong, Ipe performs extremely well in harsh weather conditions and high-traffic areas. With proper care, an Ipe deck can last 40+ years while maintaining its structural integrity. Over time, it can be oiled to preserve its deep color or left untreated to develop a natural silver-gray patina.

I started buying IPE from Brazilian Lumber over one year ago before the vendor opened the California location (i.e. where I am located). There were some issues related to the lumber (IPE), BUT the vendor made sure that all was taken care of and that I was happy. I mentioned “the issues” not to say that they product is bad, but rather to stressed out that the vendor provides superb service. No matter what you do, the problems may happen. Important is how such situations are handled. I was working with Luis, great guy to work with. I recommend this vendor.

I upgraded my backyard with Ipe deck tiles for my patio. It was definitely an investment, but it’s turned out to be worth every penny. The tiles were easy to install and the finished product is not only beautiful, but also incredibly durable and functional. I would highly recommend Ipe deck tiles to anyone looking to create a beautiful and long-lasting outdoor space.

The best place to get Brazilian hardwood that I\’ve found anywhere in California or online. The customer service is very good, the reps are attentive to you upon arrival and they are very knowledgeable. The quality of wood is superb and the pricing is cheaper than I can find anywhere else.
