Wax Dipped Inner cover, 5 Frame

5 frame inner cover made with 1/4" plywood drilled with a 71mm hole (fits regular mouth jar lid) and a 7/8" rim and is assembled with glue and staples and then dipped in boiling wax for 10 minutes. This special wax dipping process drives moisture out of the wood and impregnates the wood with wax, providing a long-lasting wood preservative and finish that repels water for many years to come. That means this equipment is ready to use and does not need to be painted, saving valuable time and energy. 

Why Beekeepers Choose Wax-Dipped Equipment

Wax dipped equipment is ready to use requiring no painting, reduces long-term upkeep and provides a protective seal that penetrates deep into the wood grain and into the joints. The result is a hive body built to resist cracking, warping, and breakdown over years of exposure.
