What the manufacturer actually lists
Hardwood siding with the specified 15/16-inch actual profile. A species-by-species approval list is not given on the reviewed product page.
Named species / categories
No species-specific listing established for this exact record. The material category above is not blanket approval.
Explicit exclusions
No exhaustive exclusion list found. Absence of a prohibition is not approval.
Conditions that change the answer
- Do not substitute the aluminum 1X clip or its no-furring detail. Separate starter clips are used here.
- The linked limited warranty requires authorized-dealer purchase and registration within 45 days. It excludes improper installation and does not cover removal or reinstallation costs; read the current terms.
- Vertical, angled and overhead installations require the additional lower-hole attachment through the siding into the supporting structure.
- A board-end joint uses two clips. Do not import the shared-clip instruction from the 1X system.
- A species name alone does not approve the supplied profile, moisture condition, screw or exposure.
- For saltwater, pool chemicals or treated substrates, verify the complete metal combination and manufacturer corrosion guidance. A stainless insert is not a blanket marine approval.

Reference-inferred or illustrative features
- Bend transitions and partial-width clip sections reconstructed from multiple CAD views
- Furring extent and cropped wall context
- Current production profile and tolerances remain pending
Supplied production fit: pending. A recognizable model does not change the compatibility result. The board shown explains a manufacturer interface, not approved Ipe Woods milling.
A · Verified technical model — Geometry from approved CAD or dimensional drawings; only verified dimensions are displayed.
B · Reference reconstructed — Source-faithful visual model. Inferred details are recorded and unverified manufacturing dimensions are withheld.

Manufacturer installation evidence, manufacturer geometry and supplied production fit are independent verification states. No generated image establishes any of them.
Dimensions belong to different parts
Installed gap, clip size, board thickness and groove cut are separate measurements. Mill tolerances and the sold accessory match remain separate approvals.
| Measurement | Inches | Millimeters | Applies to / limitation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Specified actual board thickness | 0.9375 | 23.813 | Nominal 5/4 system. |
| Furring layout | 16 | 406.4 | Manufacturer field layout; verify the project attachment design. |
| Clip envelope / profile reveal | Unverified | — | Needs Verification from the current product drawing; do not infer from a photograph. |
Metric values are calculated conversions, not added manufacturing precision.
The screw is part of the system
Published instruction: #8 × 2-inch stainless T15 trim-head. Verify exact kit alloy and support penetration separately from the 304 clip.
Installation sequence
Prepare the weather barrier and correctly anchored furring. Install separate starters on a level line.
Seat the matching profiled board; place the next clip on the upper edge.
For the horizontal field detail, drive the primary screw at approximately 45° through the upper clip hole into furring.
For vertical, angled or overhead work, use the lower secondary hole to fasten through the board into the support as directed. The extra attachment is not optional for those orientations.
Use separate clips at board-end joints. Resolve final boards, openings, ventilation and flashing with the wall detail.
