Paper fiber type: softwood, hard pine. Using transmitted light microscopy, fibers are identified by the presence of large, rectangular fenestriform pits. Pits occur as singles (across the fiber) more than doubles, but both may be present. Dentate ray tracheids are present. Appearance with [[Graff "C" stain]]: varies with pulping and bleaching. Average dimensions of fibers: length 3.4mm, width 30-40μm. Common pulping method: [[kraft process|kraft]] and [[sulfite process|sulfite]]. | Paper fiber type: softwood, hard pine.

Description
1) A common evergreen tree, Pinus resinosa, native to northeastern North America. Red pine has a light reddish wood with a fine grain. The strong, hard wood is used for flooring, millwork, and kraft pulp. Lumber production of red pine in the United States peaked about 1889.
2) The primary timber tree, Dacrydium cupressinum, of New Zealand. Red pine has a reddish brown wood with a straight grain. It is used for furniture, millwork, and kraft pulp.
3): A decorative evergreen, Pinus densiflora, native to Japan. The Japanese red pine is primary used for landscaping.
