Balsa Leading Edges are specialised Balsa Wood shapes originally designed for Aeromodellers. These shapes are rounded on one side for aerodynamics and complement Balsa Trailing Edges for use in the construction of RC Aircraft wings.

This versatile shape is also useful in numerous craft and modelling applications. For ease of blending to the front of the wing, Leading Edges are cut from lighter density Balsa than Trailing Edges.

Width x Height x Length. The width measurement refers to the flat section, the height is the perpendicular measurement to the width.

Balsa Central is simply the best!

As a longtime model builder, I’ve purchased balsa from many places—but none come close to Balsa Central. The quality of their wood is outstanding, always straight, clean, and perfectly cut. Their customer service is second to none—friendly, helpful, and genuinely passionate about what they do. My order arrived quickly and carefully packed. I couldn’t be happier. Five star service. Thank you!

leading edge material

Arrived as expected,well packaged and will save me some time as my vintage Graupner Cirrus required splicing,laminating and shaping eight strips to acheive leading edge.

Hi Lane. Thanks for taking the time to rate and review the Bala Leading Edges you bought from Balsacentral.com The Graupner Cirrus is a fine plane and a classic example of a balsa build. Good luck with your project! - Peter

It was very well packaged however when opened had 3 snaps through the piece

Hi Colin, that is a strange thing to have happen to a leading edge. Especially when it's packed with large thin sheets of balsa that weren't damaged. No problems though - we'll replace it next time you order. Peter
