Mandev Giclee Media  > Stretcher Bars
  Economy Stretcher Bars
Economy Stretcher Bars The Economy stretcher bars are a low cost, mass produced product filling a particular niche in the market.
They are made of first quality precision-cut kiln dried fir wood, and have a uniform beaded edge for forming a perfect painting support.
  Professional Bars
Professional Bars These Professional hand-crafted, kiln-dried pine stretcher bars are made to the highest specifications and offer you the unique opportunity to purchase stretcher strips and crossbars that fit together like fine furniture for the tightest possible fit and easiest assembly possible. ProBar Stretcher strips feature the traditional tongue-in-groove joint. Crossbars fit perfectly in custom slots in the stretcher frame and are Dado cut in the center to create a finished one piece look.

The ProBar stretcher is made from kiln dried pine timber which is carefully selected to eliminate knots and ensure a perfect match with each and every bar. These bars are "dead straight" and not subject to warping and will lie 100% flat against the wall.


Because of the increased width and strength, there is less of a requirement for cross braces.
  Loose Stretcher Bars
Loose Stretcher Bars Loose stretcher bars incur a slight premium due to breaking of boxes and repacking etc. However, these are available for the framer who does not require large quantities.
  Cross Braces
Cross Braces These cross braces are designed to fit our Standard / Pro, Gallery / Exh, and Museaum stretcher bars as stipulated

Our cross braces attach easily into the stretcher bars for a solid fit. It is best to order cross braces when ordering stretcher bars to ensure a correct fit. For stretcher bar sizes longer than 24" use of cross braces will provide better strength and stability. Stretcher bars will represent the length of bar as ordered.

Please ensure you select the correct style of bar "A" , "B" or "C" type.
