Hard Maple sapwood is creamy white with a slight reddish brown tinge and the heartwood varies from light to dark reddish brown. The amount of darker brown heartwood can vary significantly according to growing region, InternetLumber color sorts all upper grades of hard and soft maple for color into white one face and white one face and better. Both sapwood and heartwood can contain pith fleck. The wood has a close fine, uniform texture and is generally straight-grained, but it can also occur as "curly," "fiddleback," and "birds-eye" figure.The wood is hard and heavy with good strength properties, in particular its high resistance to abrasion and wear. It also has good steam-bending properties.Hard Maple typically comes from Sugar Maples (Acer saccharum) the same trees that are used to produce maple syrup.
