Can DeckoRail balusters be used with lumber treated with Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) or Copper Azole (CA-B) wood preservative?
DeckoRail aluminum balusters can be used with ACQ or CA-B wood preservative as long as they do not come in direct contact with the treated wood. We recommend using FastBall™ connectors with washers (included in each package) to attach DeckoRail Round balusters to a railing. Use the plastic washers included with the screws for attaching DeckoRail Arch, Contour, or Rectangular balusters to a treated rail. Corrosion caused by direct contact with treated wood is not covered under the warranty.
