2x6 x 104-5/8 in. Premium/Select Kiln-Dried Stud
Product Overview
Build with confidence using our Premium/Select 2x6 Studs. Specially manufactured for structural integrity and aesthetic consistency, these studs are the preferred choice for professional builders who demand straightness and minimal defects. At a precision-cut length of 104-5/8 inches, these are optimized for framing 9-foot walls with standard plate configurations.
Key Features
Premium/Select Grade: Higher quality than standard "Stud" grade. Expect fewer knots, less wane (bark edges), and superior straightness for easier installation and flatter walls.
Precision Pre-Cut: The 104-5/8" length is specifically designed to create a finished wall height of 9 feet (108 inches) when combined with one bottom plate and two top plates.
Kiln-Dried (KD): Heat-treated to reduce moisture content, which minimizes warping, twisting, and shrinking after installation.
Smooth Finish: Sourced from high-quality Spruce-Pine-Fir (SPF) or Douglas Fir, providing a clean surface that is easy to nail, screw, and saw.

Why "Premium" Matters
Using Premium/Select lumber reduces "culls" (waste) on the job site. Because these boards are straighter and have fewer structural imperfections, your drywall will lay flatter, and your doors and windows will hang more accurately. It’s an investment in a faster build and a higher-quality finished home.
