Weight = moderate
Resists denting and marring
Hardness = medium
Compression strength (parallel to grain) = medium
Bending strength (MOR) = high
Bending strength in the air-dry condition (about 12 percent moisture content) is high - comparable to Teak. It has medium compression strength parallel to grain, comparing favorably to Mahogany. Hardness is rated as medium. It resists denting and marring about as well as white oak or birch. The weight is moderate. The wood is high in density.
