CUTEK® Extreme CD50 stands as a premier choice for safeguarding timber in the most demanding environments.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 is a high-performance, oil-based wood stabiliser with a unique self-healing effect. Penetrating deeply into timber, CUTEK® Extreme CD50 highlights the natural grain and beauty of wood whilst providing robust and long-lasting protection. CUTEK® Extreme CD50 will not flake, or peel and maintenance is fast and simple – no need to sand or strip.
Engineered in Australia to meet the rigorous conditions of its varied climate, from the intense humidity of Queensland to the stark ultraviolet exposure in Tasmania, this oil-based wood stabiliser is uniquely designed to penetrate deeply into timber.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 diffuses throughout wood to control liquid and gas phase moisture, to minimise warping, cupping, and splitting. By improving the dimensional stability of wood, CUTEK® Extreme CD50 improves the service life of your timber.
The self-healing effect of CUTEK® Extreme CD50 means it works differently to traditional wood stain/wood oil/acrylic/urethane/natural oils/wood coatings. Instead, it ensures that the wood remains protected from the inside out, continuously migrating to any cuts or damages to restore its barrier. This feature is particularly beneficial in extreme climates, where traditional wood treatments might fail due to the harsh conditions.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 enhances the natural beauty, grain, and texture of timber. Applied as a clear oil, CUTEK® Extreme CD50 will allow timber to naturally silver over time upon exposure to Sunlight. Mixing in one of 16 CUTEK® Colourtones will provide UV protection to your timber, and also help to either enhance and maintain the freshly oiled natural look of timber or alter the timber colour to meet your design requirements.

Maintenance with CUTEK® Extreme CD50 is simple, fast, and cost effective
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 will not crack, peel, or split, and your wood can be easily rejuvenated or restored using CUTEK®’s Prepare and Protect system – no need to sand or strip.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 should be reapplied when the wood is no longer beading water, or as frequently as necessary to retain the natural beauty and colour of the wood.
Due to the accumulative effect of CUTEK® Extreme CD50, generally each maintenance coat will use less oil than the previous coat. As the protective properties build up inside the timber, the time between recoats can extend.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 is proudly Australian made
Although CUTEK® products are now sold globally, they are manufactured locally in Queensland, Australia. One of the many reasons that CUTEK® is becoming a popular product internationally is that it performs so well in the harsh Australian environments.
Furthermore, CUTEK® Australia is a proud family-owned Australian business that has been involved in the local timber industry for over 35 years.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 is a sustainable choice.
CUTEK® is committed to formulating products with lower Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). With CUTEK®, more protective components penetrate and stay permanently in the coated timber. A VOC number quantifies the amount of volatile organic compounds that are released from a coating into the environment as it dries.
CUTEK® Extreme CD50 typically contain 20-30% VOC’s whereas many competitor products contain VOC’s at the 50-60% level.
Our CUTEK® lab is continually working to use the best raw materials, in an environmentally sustainable way. That includes making sure that our products are as low in VOC content as possible.

CUTEK® Colourtones are transparent and will not hide the beauty of your timber, they will emphasize it. Because CUTEK® Colourtones are transparent, the final result can vary significantly on different timber substrates.
