Elery top pine is described as a strong timber, that is dimensionally stable and tough. Its strength properties are rated as medium to high in all categories. Bending strength of air-dried wood is comparable to that of Teak, which is considered to be strong. Maximum crushing strength, or compression strength parallel to grain, is high. It is fairly hard, resisting wear, denting, and marring fairly well. It is a heavy wood and has high density.
