Also called
American White Elm, Soft Elm, or Water Elm, this wood is much
softer and lighter than Red Elm.
The wood is of
medium density with medium bending and crushing strengths. The
heartwood is reddish-brown in color and is fairly straight but
sometimes interlocked with coarse and woolly texture.
The wood is
fairly easy to work with hand and machine tools as long as the
edges are kept sharp. It nails, screws and glues well, but will
wool-up if the tools are not sharp.
