3D™ Pro 2.5 Stretcher Bar • 1/2" Canvas Clearance
1/2" Canvas Clearance is the space between the Bar and the canvas. Generally speaking, more clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Our design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to the maximize strength of the Stretcher Bar.
- Produces a 2.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
- 1.25" wide Stretcher Bar
- All Bars have an exclusive groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to which cross braces and Diamond Corner Braces attach
- Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest
Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars
Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.
We only use Solid Wood to build our Stretcher Bars because a solid piece of wood will last indefinitely. When we speak of archival value, it's not just the paint you use and the quality of your canvas and ground, even the wood choices manufacturers add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.
The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.
10x24 2.5" 3D Pro Deep Edge Heavy Duty Strainer Frame Offers Maximum Support!
- Drawing depicts the exact frame construction, not the proportion
- Super Strong Strainer Bars are 2.5" deep x 1-1/4" wide
- Fixed Corner Frame - Not keyable or expandable
- Super Strong Keyable Brace Included (3/4"" x 3.25")
- The Bars have a clever utility groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to attach the brace
- Patented Keyable Braces allow you to tension the canvas in the middle, where it's needed the most
Canvas Tension is in Your Control
In dry climates or air conditioned environments, the lack of moisture in the air causes wood frames to shrink and the canvas fibers to narrow and elongate making the canvas more slack and resulting in a loss of canvas tension. In some instances, the canvas could have waves on the surface resulting in an unsightly viewing experience.
Our 3D™ Pro 2.5 professional frames provide the functionality for you to slightly expand the size of the frame in the corners and the middle of the canvas, thereby increasing canvas tension all across the surface. The difference between a loose canvas and a tight canvas is just 1/8" of an inch, so a small adjustment using our corner and brace keys makes an important difference in canvas tension.
- Helps to prevent waves that occur in a loose canvas
- Increase canvas tension by tapping-in the corner and brace keys
- True professional class canvases make it possible for you to adjust the canvas tension
Cross Braces Make it Tighter
A tightly stretched canvas on an un-braced frame overpowers the Stretcher Bars causing them to bow inward and thereby lose tension. Sometimes that bow can expose a space in picture frames.
When a canvas is stretched on a properly supported frame, the cross-braces prevent the Bars from bowing thereby achieving maximum canvas tension. To increase the canvas tension even more, simply tap the corner and brace keys further in their slots. Properly supported frames provide you with the control over the canvas tension of your canvas and painting.
Sustainability Fights Against Climate-Change
Sustainable forestry practices are an important tool in the fight against climate change. By using lumber from sustainably managed forests in our products, we can help to reduce the carbon footprint of our business and support the health of the planet. It's a win-win for everyone involved.

Art must be the cultivation of beauty for beauty's own sake.
♦ Mary Cassatt
Mary Cassatt, a luminary in the realm of Impressionism, was not just a painter but a thinker, continuously exploring the essence and purpose of art. Her proclamation about art's true purpose serves as a reminder of the intrinsic value of beauty. In an era dominated by social conventions and standards, Cassatt's dedication to portraying genuine moments of life made her stand out. She captured the candid beauty of everyday scenes, often emphasizing the intimate bonds between mothers and children.
Today, artists find themselves amidst a whirlwind of trends, technological advancements, and the ever-present allure of commercial success. Yet, Cassatt's words beckon us to remember the heart of our passion. As artists, we must never lose sight of the pure joy of creation and the transformative power of beauty. Art isn't always about the message, the audience, or even the artist; sometimes, it's simply about celebrating beauty in its rawest form. By heeding Cassatt's wisdom, we can ensure that our creative endeavors remain true to the very essence of artistry, enriching not just our careers but our souls as well.
Echoing the timeless spirit of artistry, we bring you this quote paired with our beautiful portrait of Mary Cassatt that we created. Let your colors on the canvas speak!
Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner
While all of our Masterpiece® Pro canvases are stretched very tightly and our frames have a built-in method to increase tension, we have another method to add canvas tension. Tight'n'Up™ Liquid Canvas Retensioner (sold separately) can be sprayed on the back of a canvas to repair most canvas tension issues.
With Tight'n'Up™, you can add tension to just a small area, or a large area. Simply spray it lightly on the back and brush it into the canvas, and within seconds, your canvas becomes tighter and stays tighter. The more you use, the tighter it gets.
