It is classified as a “Class 1 Heavy Hardwood” of exceptional durability and is well suited to heavy marine applications and external building applications. It, unlike many other Eucalypts, it is relatively stable in drying, if cut correctly, free of pith. Timber harvested from Eucalyptus Cladocalyx has little defect and is prized for its durability.
