Cobra Rods can be used in house logs, log and timber posts, landscape timbers, deck joists and posts and other places where moisture is present.

Cobra Rod is a wood preservative, fungicide and insecticide. The product takes the form of a solid cylindrical rod that is about 3/8" in diameter.

• The rod is a deep green color and has a glass-like look and feel.
• These compounds are melted and fused into the form of a solid glass-like rod, which begins to dissolve with moisture in the wood and travels throughout the entire wood section at the groundline zone.
• Cobra Rod will arrest early stages of decay and set up a defensive protection for years.

Treatment cycle is 8 to 10 years.

NOTE

:1/2" stock is closer to 3/8" , however the 2" length is closer to 2-1/2" so we just call them 1/2" x 2" for easier comparison to Bor8 rods
