Hard Maple is a cold weather tree favoring a Northern climate.

Hard Maple is, as its name suggests, hard and heavy with good strength properties. It has high resistance to abrasion and wear, and has good steam bending properties. Hard Maple dries slowly with considerable shrinkage and can be susceptible to movement in performance. Pre-boring is advised when nailing and screwing. Hard Maple machines well, glues satisfactorily and can be stained and polished to a fantastic finish.
